    Lyrebird wants to impress a mate. Initiates Car alarm sounds
  • @TheDoubleBee
    Kinda annoying when you try to serenade your crush but instead attract all sorts of other creatures whose sounds you incorporate in your elaborate song
  • @RamnaViaz
    Human male buys a car to impress female, Lyrebird male pretends to be a car.
  • @mr_barreraa
    Male Lyrebird: imitates chainsaw* Females: that's hot 🥵
  • @Jesse-B
    As a kid I thought their name was spelt "liar" because they imitated everything, it wasn't until I went to school I discovered they were called "lyre" bird because their tail feathers resemble the ancient stringed instrument when displayed.
  • There really is not a single presenter on this channel that doesn't absolutely nail it every time. Way to spot talent, Animalogic.
  • Except for the lyrebird, There is a hypothesis floating around of the significance of the evolution of mimicking sounds in birds. It is because mimicked sounds are what the birds hear in their foraging, and especially for foraging species, the more sounds the male mimics, the more places he has been which is a testament to his resourcefulness and thus ability to find food.
  • @samwill7259
    Funny thing is, because of the mimicking thing. You can either call it a Lyrebird or a LIAR-bird and both names would fit equally well
  • @rattyeely
    I've liked Lyrebirds for years, so it's great to finally see some new footage of them and learn about their lifestyles
  • @mypal1990
    The Peacock's close adversary: the Lyrebird.
  • “Animal kingdom’s master impersonator” Lyrebird on the set of star wars
  • @marginbuu212
    Imagine a lyrebird and that guy from Police Academy in the same room.
  • I love when you cover Australian animals and I've especially been waiting for this! Hooray!
  • Geez, those sounds are ridiculous! It blows my mind that these things can so perfectly memorize and mimic such a huge variety of sounds. World of Birds continues to amaze me in terms of content quality and educational value, great work everyone!
  • @lcsfgnds
    what an amazing video, I love Animalogic, Aranya, Danielle and everyone involved
  • @captainsealed
    Nature's greatest voice actor. Disney, hire this bird.
  • @MyVin1234
    Already loved this bird. Seeing how they forage for food and the outcome that's beneficial to so many other things just gives them more points for me!
  • @XSemperIdem5
    Omg, he's literally raking the forest to help prevent fires 🤣 And I am going to keep requesting a video on the short-tailed sheerwaters. Their migratory journeys are incredible. From Alaska to Australia (Phillip Island specifically) and a trip to feed down south in Arctic waters before returning to lay their eggs. I'm loving this bird series. Birds are such amazing animals.
