Came across this on youtube, Lyre Bird at
Adelaide Zoo imitating the sounds of the recent constuction crew. What an amazing creature these birds are, I have been lucky enough to come across them on
camping trips & they are just incredible with the accuracy of there imitations of the surrounding enviroment.

Love the cordless drill bit driving a screw into timber at the end : )
