[@alexlyster3459]

Honestly, my favourite thing about these birds is just how happy they are to sing right into a camera. Not a care in the world about the human right up in their face. They just want to put on a good show!

[@chrisholwell7929]

It was actually the opposite, he jumped up to me and got in my face and performed🙂

[@alexlyster3459]

@chrisholwell7929 That only makes it better! It knows it's a star, and wants the world to know it too

[@chrismusix5669]

You don't get how good this bird is at mimicking: it's also incorporating the spatial resonance/echo it heard to these sounds.

[@XMIR10C]

YUP. unique, better than a parrot. Someone neddss to get a grant for a research edxperiment

[@J101191514]

Yes that was incredible

[@mackenzierynebagtong8549]

Chris Musix yep!

[@samuelmuiruri4704]

good observation, ple assume animals are just dumb, i think not. i just saw a wild dog held in a lion's mouth playing dead , the moment the lion relaxes the mofo runs off. animals smart as hell.

[@petermasterson8276]

You don't say.

[@Ama-Elaini]

Basically a living sound recorder.

[@cold_static]

Basically, a living beatbox.

He's got the shutter sound of a camera down perfect one part you can even hear the film winding!

[@sheripatson5787]

I hear a man's voice as well

[@_iamnotsober]

the laughing kookaburra call is also pretty dead on.

[@monkeyintensity1]

Amazing creatures . Not only can they produce such a broad range of sounds , they can hear a sound , mimic it and remember it. Extraordinary.....

[@hazrry]

Help I'm addicted to this bird 😭 they are sooo unique

[@Cyber_Kriss]

No doubt this bird come from a galaxy far, far away...

[@petermasterson8276]

Every doubt.

[@AdiQ28]

Yeah, far far away

[@radmugi9957]

a galaxy far, far away... [orchestra sound]

[@tonytafoya6217]

This is the evidence that I've been waiting for: Human animals aren't the only artists. This bird is an artist of sorts. It perfectly reproduces sounds that it hears, same as humans when they reproduce scenes in life. This bird is a sound artist. Fascinating. It has no comprehension of what those sounds mean, it's just mimicking and reproducing them. Amazing.

[@whisperingeaglelanders2339]

LOL! This bird is a scream! He loves that lazer gun... so hysterical!

[@scotthilliard7177]

Seems to be his "go to"! Very cool.

[@cloudboi2804]

Lol right it's adorable sounds just like a multisound lasergun

[@michscott380]

This bird so halerous I agree amazing bird

[@milotorres6894]

His lazer is awesome r2d2 is good then he takes a pic w/auto wind simply amazing bird the cocubara fools the actual bird it's so perfect mimicry so uncanny ...

[@truthseeker2321]

He's been watching to much of the Star Wars saga.

A greatv mimic. I remember a friend of mine (now alas dead) and I were panning for gold in New South Wales and were entertained by a lyre bird making the sounds of traffic; chain-saws; and a skiffle group. We found only little gold...but who cared with entertainment like that.....

[@lorettap.925]

I'm not a lyrebird lady but I'm totally convinced. I'm in love with this little guy.

[@jdstin1060]

Ok freak out of it

[@DRILLER19581]

You can even hear the static of their radios

[@NOONE-cd4gu]

Imagine how good he would sound if he was raised amongst opera singers. Just saying

[@cold_static]

Someone start a GoFundMe to raise Lyrebirds among opera singers.

[@NOONE-cd4gu]

@@cold_static ahahahhahaha yess lol

[@christophermckay7082]

Actually I think I prefer what he's doing right now!

[@lnproductions3227]

That is genius! :-)

[@truthseeker2321]

Or Death metal singers.

[@oxennguyen3148]

The most talented bird of all birdies!

[@Tonihaddock]

Owning one of these birds would become maddening

[@NOONE-cd4gu]

😂😂i would only sing opera arias or play instruments . So he would mimick those😂

[@maureenleigh4724]

I don't think owning any bird is a good thing. They are surely meant to be free (as a bird)?

[@pizzafrenzyman]

especially if they mimic the doorbell at all hours

[@raddestkidever]

He loves the phaser sounds. Most amazing bird. What was God thinking when he created this bird!!!!!

[@catonthemoon2084]

@Al Pal I think not Al evolution really?

[@catonthemoon2084]

He did it for entertainment purposes..

[@catonthemoon2084]

@Al Pal Oh Al so clever but you're wrong about your statement. So one can conclude that if you're wrong about the small things you're clueless about the big ones.

[@catonthemoon2084]

@Al Pal You absolutely CAN'T prove evolution is true you're dumber than I thought. Darwins THEORY of Stupidity isnt fact just because they teach it as fact to indoctrinate the idiots it's still only a theory by a guy who eventually went nuts go look it up. Bet you didn't know that did you..lmao

[@jaymesbenny7346]

I feel you bro, God is kind. He wants us to be happy

[@douglaskelly9173]

Imagine having this bird outside your bedroom window every morning!!

[@nachtschadedoggerbank1089]

And then it have seen that scene from Police Academy, where that guy is mimic a machinegun... and you flat on the floor wondering who's shooting at you. 😱🤣

[@patrickf.2435]

The laser gun sound is amazing 🤩

[@wyokaiju992]

@Al Pal Chainsaw according to the BBC. Which i could see. A chainsaw sitting there popping at idle

[@dongalletti7862]

[@MrPrincebinondo]

Star Wars + Jurassic Park = Lyrebird....

[@littledan6994]

That bird looks like it actually wants you to hear the noises... just staring at the camera performing 👌🎶🔊👏

[@danielaphilips5670]

That Bird is amazing...

[@stevenbaer5849]

A living tape recorder this bird is absolutely beautiful and amazing sound effects.

He just makes me smile soooooo much!!! Such a fabulous vocal range ... he is fantastic:)

[@bonniechase5599]

What a precious little birdie!

[@dhyan9553]

This bird likes to fire bullets as much as it can..!!

[@vasjavetrov7317]

Замечательная птичка.Часто слушаю.

[@barabinyak]

Imagine this amazing bird hearing The Predator and start mimicking it at the zoo or even in the forest - there'll be a lot of terrified people.

[@JohnGardnerAlhadis]

I laughed my arse off at the mental image of a lyrebird repeating Arnold's line: _"You are one ugly motherfucker."_ *kookaburra noises*

[@giancarlovazquez3955]

This bird is like Michael Winslow. Love how perfect he makes the sounds.

[@zzy2620]

Yes, I'd be interested in a competition between them.

They say this bird "sings" when it's courting the opposite sex. Now put a speaker there, and play whitney huoston nonstop. Next time, when it's courting, we will hear "AND IIIIII......WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOUUUUUU....."

[@kingoftheswing.2078]

Absolutely amazing.....🤔

[@patrickmagro9536]

Yes the mimicking they have of other Australian native birds is amazing as once camping down the bunnawangs south coast of nsw in the morning we heard a chainsaw as was close to our camp spot , but after looking around the heavily forested area there was no one around., then we spotted it the aussie lyrebird . No lie !

[@donpaladino]

This bird does not appear to have its own voice. Imitation of voices it hears is its voice. Truly nature’s wonder!

Finally, a video about a bird's calls that isn't drowned out by loud music and narration.

I like the car alarm 🚨 and the camera shutter/winding up ….it seemed like at the very end he was waiting for his treat for his vocal abilities!

[@darydavid3671]

Incredible

[@Alexei_xyz]

The beauty speaks what it hears

[@IamKlaus007]

A brilliant example of exquisite beauty hidden behind a 'plain jane' exterior that doesn't reveal itself until it voices an astounding ability to memorize then replicate the many varieties and intricacies of sounds it has heard. A wonderful example of how so many human beings can get the true concept of 'beauty' so utterly wrong.

[@jeffchristianson-ziebell7727]

I’m now in love with this bird species.... wow 49 years I’ve missed em lol.... I’m goin to Australia. Hope they don’t keep these in captivity- beyond zoos that is and even that’s sad but het then we get this and the additional ability to love em I suppose.
