Amazing! Bird sounds from the lyre bird - David Attenborough - BBC wildlife
David Attenborough presents the amazing lyre bird, which mimics the calls of other birds - and chainsaws and camera shutters - in this video clip from The Life of Birds. This clever creature is one of the most impressive and funny in nature, with unbelievable sounds to match the beautiful pictures. From the BBC.
Actually, all egg laying animals are monotremes. The echidna and the platypus are the only two species of mammals that are also monotremes.

I have a recording of a family of Lyrebirds which learned a piece of flute music. I've personally heard one copy a car alarm. I wondered what on earth it was until I saw the Lyrebird.

Actually there's three monotremes. There's another species of Echidna - the Long Beaked Echidna, which lives in Papua New Guinea. For those who are interested, monotremes are furry animals which lays eggs.
