Bahaha! LOL'd at the "pew pew" sound. Like space invaders =D

[MisterCovek]

His mating call sounds like a fax machine XD

[itsStruth]

It's not one of a kind. All lyre birds do it - and many in close proximity to cities pick up city sounds.

[noteatpig2getha]

@itsStruth - who was trying to imply that his mimicry abilities are one of a kind ?

[itsStruth]

@noteatpig2getha Right at the end the presenter says "...chook is certainly one of a kind". But any lyrebird picks up those sort of sounds if they live close to a city. But perhaps I shouldn't nitpick the pointless little wrap up comment presenters often use.

[noteatpig2getha]

@itsStruth - Fair enough - I think it's pretty sad when wild lyrebirds are mimicking chain saws and trees falling as their habitats disappear.

[PhoenixStillRising]

@noteatpig2getha

i agree with you itsStruth, it is a sad commentary on the reality of the lyrebirds' environment, which is slowly disappearing due to mankind.

[TheCrippledCrow]

Lawl I hope the workmen watch their mouths around this bird X) Who knows what it'll catch

[KelevraSix]

Haha "pew pew" Die foot! :D

[Isthisthelongestname]

[mattsladey111]

The radio noises it made were so disturbing, sounded like something from Saw! It's interesting how we can see this bird interpret sound.

[ladymeserole]
