"Up to 80% of the Superb Lyrebird’s song consists of mimicry, and it’s not unusual for an individual male lyrebird to have mastered the calls of 20-25 species of bird."

This video is of Nova, a lyrebird at the Adelaide Zoo. There's kookaburra, magpie, whipbird, and various other imitations in there, and she likes to throw in a camera shutter click every now and then as well.
