Lyrebird: World's weirdest bird that mimics Chainsaw, Car Alarm and More

Lyrebird is found in Australia

Lyre is a musical instrument of ancient Greece. Lyrebird's spectacular tail of fanned feathers, when spread out in display, looks like a lyre.

Lyrebirds are capable of imitating almost any sound. Mixed in with their own calls, clicks and song, you will usually hear them mimicking loud clear sounds made by other birds and mammals - including humans. They have been heard to mimic the sounds of chainsaws, horns, alarms and even trains. They sing throughout the year, and scientists think that the mimicry helps them to vocally set out their territory and defend it from other lyrebirds.
