@@Anonymous-mn3td No, you see, they don't! That's why when the lyrebird is mimicking the kookaburra, it says it isn't using sunblock, because it helps make it more believable, of course. @Edriss Scofield Ahaha, yeah, the bird's probably thinking those people were idiots for walking around in Aus without sun protection.
I was bush walking and heard a lyre bird (maybe 10 meters away) that sounded like a group of Japanese tourists walking by ten meters away. It was weird.
We had one near our property, which had a very unique creaking gate that could be heard for miles, we wouldn't lubricate it on purpose as it was a great way to let us know someone was coming or going, at all hours. We then had a lyrebird that decided to make our property it's home. Within a week, we had lubricated the gate.
@@ivonastrukar4715 Some might care about peoples health rather than money. Or they could probably get sued if they recommend sunblock and the person still gets cancer
This is adorable. To all that think it's fake, when Lyrebirds hear a sound, they can mimic it, and it can be passed down through generations of birds, as an important call, or unimportant. It's obvious that this Lyrebird has heard somebody say "No sunblock." before. Lyrebirds pick up and learn words much faster then Parrots, but both can mimic calls. I'm probably going to get attacked for this, but yall know the truth. Lyrebirds are cool, I think we all should learn more about them in their majestic beauty and smarts... ^^
@@galvanizeddreamer2051 well, kinda but not really. Lyrebirds incorporate all the different sounds they hear into their mating calls. If the bird is living in a remote part of the jungle, that's just different animal noises, mainly other birds. But if a Lyrebird lives close to human civilization, as this one does, then it will also incorporate sounds they hear from us into their mating calls. And yes, that includes chainsaws from nearby woodcutters. If one lived in Italy, it would probably mention pasta a lot.
The great David Attenborough in his BBC program discussed this great bird. The one they found mimics a chainsaw, car alarm, and camera shutter. Funny and sad at the same time. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mSB71jNq-yQ.html&feature=emb_logo
Plot twist: Lyrebirds aren't mimics, there's just always a lyrebird hidden near each of us providing the sounds of our world. We don't even actually speak, we just move our mouths while the lyrebird provides our voices. I am very high.
I just find it fascinating how these things can so perfectly imitate a chainsaw, yet immediately turn into a parrot when they try to imitate a human voice. It almost seems like a paradox.
A Lyrebird family used to nest near the bathroom window of the house I grew up in. The favourite sound to make was chainsaw noises/crying baby noises... 😳 Like where the fuck have those birds been....😳 Still spooks me
Awesome! Lyrebirds are from south eastern Australia. In North America we have these master mimickers-mockingbirds, thrashers, and catbirds. The Brown Thrasher can sing up to 2000 songs and is the champion mimicker in North America; mover over, lyrebirds! 💕☮🌎🌌
Songs? Lol, that's cute. The lyrebird can imitate any sound. Car alarms, chainsaws, music, other animals, hoomans, and they pass these sounds down through generations.
Imagine walking in the woods and seeing a lyrebird saying "Now where the hell can I dispose these damn bodies?". Since lyrebirds mimic sounds they hear, RUN
