Lyrebirds are native to Australia and are known for the ability to mimic all sorts of sounds they encounter in their environment.
For example... a laser pistol.
...camera sounds (starts at 1:46).
... and well-known sitcom theme tunes (even David Attenborough is surprised).
OK... the last one's a lie (but I'm sure you knew that already).
