That's great. Never heard of that bird. I copied the link and e-mailed it. Thanks. It made my parrot sit up and pay attention

One afternoon I was in the back yard and heard a phone ringing in my neighbor's back yard. After investigating I discovered it was in a tree and was a Starling.
Wow, even sounded like he was imitating the people talking at the construction site.
Incredible mimics.
I heard one imitating a motor drive from a camera used to film the bird many years ago on a David Attenborough special.
Incredible.
Peter.
Here is that BBC special where it does the camera sounds. I'm still impressed. I've never heard of it either.
