Blackbird imitating an ambulance


This blackbird has learned to mimic the sound of an ambulance siren (and a mobile phone ringtone), and uses the call in the early mornings attempting to attract a mate - much to the bemusement of human neighbors in Somerset, England.

If you were impressed by or enjoyed that video, by all means visit this TYWKIWDBI entry from April which featured David Attenborough and the world-class mimicry of a Superb Lyrebird.
