This amazing bird is one of Australia's most amazing animals ​

Lyrebirds are one of Australia's most remarkable animals, capable of mimicking not only other birds and native animal calls but even complex man made sounds. This lyrebird must have been around some construction as it mimics common household building noises like electric drills and hand sawing however their have been numerous reports over the years of lyrebirds being able to perfectly mimic the sound of a chainsaw!

If that wasn't impressive enough, lyrebirds have also been known to mimic the human voices of those that care for them in animal sanctuaries and zoos. We all know of birds that can mimic human words, but when was the last time you heard a cockatoo sound like an electric drill?
