Infact, even their true name is a mistake. Their tails do not display in the shape of a lyre, the feathers are displayed down over the the body like in the video. The first drawings of lyrebirds were made from deceased specimens brought back to Britain, by men who had never seen a live specimen.

Sadly in this case, it's not true, I say this as one of the handful of researchers who study lyrebirds behaviour. None of the anthropomorphic mimicry shown here was mimicry. These elements are all part of the lyrebirds species specific repertoire. Also,the literature on female mimicry, an important part of lyrebirds territorial and defensive behaviour is absent.

@joshuaokoro-sokoh2993 2 года назад

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.

@TheDeepThinker-sq3iy 2 года назад

Lol, as soon as you said "star wars" I got the funniest image caught in my head of someone watching a star wars movie at max volume and somewhere nearby was one of those Lyerbirds hearing the beginning theme of the movie... so it starts singing that WHOLE thing.. but somewhere right around the beginning course of it a female got immediately impressed by its performance and decided to just go right in to let the male mate with it. So the male just gets right on top and starts doing it while still humming the rest of the line. . . I am just loling so fricking hard right now... this is the happiest day of my constipated life(rofl)!

A shame to hear Lyrebirds are threatened by not just foxes, but cats; I hear domestic & stray cats tend to massively overhunt, & wipe out way too many species of birds & small rodents, so I'm always worried they're not being in check. Anyway, a neat video about a very neat species of bird! Thanks for uploading, & showing off those lovely sounds!

Where I live we actually have raccoons that eat the cats feral and domesticated So whenever we noticed someone dropping off of cat or kittens in our area we don't bother with them because the raccoons need to feed their families they cant population is pretty low in my area and we're trying to keep it that way

Adult Lyrebird males, like with most bird species, don't tend to like being around and don't get along well with other males and under normal circumstances would stick to their own bit of turf. However, unlike most bird species, Lyrebirds are among the few birds known to set aside their differences in emergency situations, being smart enough to prioritise their safety and the safety of their own kind.

First sound and "Car Alarm" as it's called later is actually blaster sound from Star Wars, most probably from a game. It's possible that there was a kid that had a toy star wars gun that made that sound and Lyrebird liked it so much that it remembered it and uses it constantly.

Thank you for enlightening me on something I should have already known, as an Aussie, the Albert lyrebird. I knew of the Superb lyrebird but the Albert was an unknown. I have had the good fortune to actually see the Superb Lyrebird in action at a sanctuary but as said never of the lesser, shyer poor cousin, the Albert lyrebird. Although nothing very showy about either both are Australia's native fauna and we should be better informed. I am aware there a so many nocturnal aboral natives that I do not know of as they reside in a warmer state or different environment to me, e.g. desert regions or are just very small and/or rare.

@MichaelKingsfordGray Месяц назад

I can attest from experience that they are impossible to spot in the wild, as they frequent very overgrown ferny forests here. The way to find them is to follow the calls, which are VERY LOUD! One I found in the remote forest was mimicking the sound of a sedan car trying to start on a weak battery. It was as loud as the real thing! I looked at the focus of the noise, and I spotted a male.
