Very nice.

I don't have the vocals, but I shake my butt exactly like that and the women don't come runnin'. I can't figure out why?

WOW- You sure that wasn't computer generated? Truly amazing!

Kinda' disappointed though...... when you wrote "this one left me speechless" I was hoping you had a few more of those bikini shots SAR_BOATS took while on his trip to San Diego!

My grandmother had rescued a crow that could say about 20 words, but it was before the invention of the video camera.

It would follow my mother and my uncles to school every day. Until a farmer shot it. Oh well...

One the first Planet Earth DVD there are some pretty amazing bird "dances" to attract mates. But I've never seen that mimicking of other sounds before as part of a mating dance. Thanks for posting this, very interesting!

I thought this might be a hoax, but a quick check on the Wiki verified it. Here is an interesting quote from the Wiki entry:

"...in 1969, a park ranger, Neville Fenton, recorded a lyrebird song, which resembled flute sounds, in the New England National Park... After much detective work by Fenton, it was discovered that in the 1930's, a flute player living on a farm adjoining the park used to play tunes near his pet lyrebird. The lyrebird adopted the tunes into his repertoire, and retained them after release into the park. Neville Fenton forwarded a tape of his recording to Norman Robinson. Because a lyrebird is able to carry two tunes at the same time, Robinson filtered out one of the tunes and put it on the phonograph for the purposes of analysis. The song represents a modified version of two popular tunes in the 1930s: "The Keel Row" and "Mosquito's Dance". Musicologist David Rothenberg has endorsed this information."
