Please make a video about shrikes.
How about a vid of orcas after?
As far as I researched the "car alarm" sound originated from a kids toy, a laser/ray gun
Bla bla bla
Please, Eurasian Coot!🦤
Lyrebird wants to impress a mate. *Initiates* Car alarm sounds
Also, chainsaw. Nothing like "mate with me" than the terrifying sounds of a chainsaw.
@@TheBlargMarg maybe some chicks are into danger 😂
@@V.U.4six *looks at Shoebill*
It was actually the sound of a laser gun toy... Maybe call it Ray gun🤔
And it somehow works.
Human male buys a car to impress female, Lyrebird male pretends to be a car.
Kinda annoying when you try to serenade your crush but instead attract all sorts of other creatures whose sounds you incorporate in your elaborate song
I could imagine being surrounded by angry animals that you mimicked at the end of your serenade.
@@Magos_Fritz Angry Star Wars Light Sabers at the end of your serenade too...
@@Magos_Fritz And a chainsaw for some bizarre reason
They almost always add their own flourish at the end which is distinctly lyrebird to female lyrebirds.
Sounds like a party
Male Lyrebird: imitates chainsaw*
Females: that's hot 🥵
As a kid I thought their name was spelt "liar" because they imitated everything, it wasn't until I went to school I discovered they were called "lyre" bird because their tail feathers resemble the ancient stringed instrument when displayed.
Pants-on-fyre bird 🤨😏
same
Lol, same.
Infact, even their true name is a mistake. Their tails do not display in the shape of a lyre, the feathers are displayed down over the the body like in the video. The first drawings of lyrebirds were made from deceased specimens brought back to Britain, by men who had never seen a live specimen.
@@rsquirrel679 what drugs are you on,
There really is not a single presenter on this channel that doesn't absolutely nail it every time. Way to spot talent, Animalogic.
Sadly in this case, it's not true, I say this as one of the handful of researchers who study lyrebirds behaviour. None of the anthropomorphic mimicry shown here was mimicry. These elements are all part of the lyrebirds species specific repertoire. Also,the literature on female mimicry, an important part of lyrebirds territorial and defensive behaviour is absent.
@@mathish1477 Presentation is being praised here, there’s only so much you can fit in 9 minutes !
@@nomssayin no, the mimicry is wrong. This information spreads and the public know less about the animals than they did before seeing it. Science communicators should do better
@@nomssayinPresentation should not be praised if the point is to inform, and the information is incorrect.
😂 Way to misspell the bird's name. Nailed what?
Except for the lyrebird, There is a hypothesis floating around of the significance of the evolution of mimicking sounds in birds. It is because mimicked sounds are what the birds hear in their foraging, and especially for foraging species, the more sounds the male mimics, the more places he has been which is a testament to his resourcefulness and thus ability to find food.
Funny thing is, because of the mimicking thing. You can either call it a Lyrebird or a LIAR-bird and both names would fit equally well
It's a mimic, which suits it better.
“Animal kingdom’s master impersonator”
Lyrebird on the set of star wars
Lol, as soon as you said "star wars" I got the funniest image caught in my head of someone watching a star wars movie at max volume and somewhere nearby was one of those Lyerbirds hearing the beginning theme of the movie... so it starts singing that WHOLE thing.. but somewhere right around the beginning course of it a female got immediately impressed by its performance and decided to just go right in to let the male mate with it.
So the male just gets right on top and starts doing it while still humming the rest of the line. . .
I am just loling so fricking hard right now... this is the happiest day of my constipated life(rofl)!
The Peacock's close adversary: the Lyrebird.
One walks the walk. The other talks the talk.
Peacock: Finally, a worthy opponent. OUR BATTLE WILL BE LEGENDARY!
it's the vocal equivalent
I've liked Lyrebirds for years, so it's great to finally see some new footage of them and learn about their lifestyles
Let me guess, was the ‘original’ Lyrebird footage you saw the David Attenborough BBC footage by any chance?
Imagine a lyrebird and that guy from Police Academy in the same room.
And that teenager who mimicked cod gun sounds
The way they strut around with these long legs really reminds me of a dinosaur
Nature's greatest voice actor.
Disney, hire this bird.
Interesting! I never knew that lyrebirds were so important to the ecology of the places they live. Great video, great presentation. Keep up your good work!
Thanks so much! :D
Everything keeps a balance
Isn’t everything important? Apart from humans of course
@@WarrenPeace007😂
I love when you cover Australian animals and I've especially been waiting for this! Hooray!
what an amazing video, I love Animalogic, Aranya, Danielle and everyone involved
We love to hear that, Lucas! Thanks for the kind words ❤️🐾
Already loved this bird. Seeing how they forage for food and the outcome that's beneficial to so many other things just gives them more points for me!
Omg, he's literally raking the forest to help prevent fires 🤣
And I am going to keep requesting a video on the short-tailed sheerwaters. Their migratory journeys are incredible. From Alaska to Australia (Phillip Island specifically) and a trip to feed down south in Arctic waters before returning to lay their eggs.
I'm loving this bird series. Birds are such amazing animals.
A shame to hear Lyrebirds are threatened by not just foxes, but cats; I hear domestic & stray cats tend to massively overhunt, & wipe out way too many species of birds & small rodents, so I'm always worried they're not being in check.
Anyway, a neat video about a very neat species of bird! Thanks for uploading, & showing off those lovely sounds!
Where I live we actually have raccoons that eat the cats feral and domesticated
So whenever we noticed someone dropping off of cat or kittens in our area we don't bother with them because the raccoons need to feed their families they cant population is pretty low in my area and we're trying to keep it that way
Yet in the US the government is so focused on the exotic pet trade being “damaging” and cats are entirely overlooked just because they’re popular

@@chris72. Why don't they put it on shelter instead of feeding them on raccoons. Now I feel bad for them, spay or neuter all those stray cats so you can control their population instead of making another generation of cats suffer. Now I'm losing my faith in humanity again. 🗿
Geez, those sounds are ridiculous! It blows my mind that these things can so perfectly memorize and mimic such a huge variety of sounds. World of Birds continues to amaze me in terms of content quality and educational value, great work everyone!
Lyrebirds: we do a little trolling
Idk about other Australians but in my area we pronounce kookaburra as cook-a-burra
I love these birds, I really wish I could mimic things the way they do
It's unreal how realistic they can imatate stuff, especially man made stuff
Adult Lyrebird males, like with most bird species, don't tend to like being around and don't get along well with other males and under normal circumstances would stick to their own bit of turf. However, unlike most bird species, Lyrebirds are among the few birds known to set aside their differences in emergency situations, being smart enough to prioritise their safety and the safety of their own kind.
Ah, the Lyrebird. The only animal so amazing that it overshadowed David Attenborough on a top ten list about HIM.
That pew pew pew makes me think they are stormtroopers in Austrailia
I love seeing how they rummage through the underbrush and overturn the soil. It reminds me of myself when I'm focused on rock hunting lol
Rock hounds unite!
T
It should not be expensive to hold a Lyrebird in the Zoo but it would attract a lot of people.
Thank you for listening to my request and making a video on them! ❤️
It really is both a lyre and a liar bird
I loved this video, it's the firs time I watch you guys and I have to say I really like how well designed the video is, both visually and in terms of audio. This is all particularly important when talking about birds, the most attractive animals by their looks and voices. Well done, team!
On a special note, of course, I really liked your hostess. She is great at delivering the information, pauses at the right times, has a very sweet voice and smile, and the small humour relief moments are also delivered in a way that does not seem forced. Keep up the great work you too, Aranya!
He impressed the presenter so much that she, like the female Lyrebird, sings praise of the male Lyrebird for a full 6 minutes.
My mind suddenly thinking of this bird imitating Samsung's notification sounds
He's so cute
Oh lyre bird, tell me sweet sweet lies.
I wanna teach a bunch of wild ones the halo theme, so that whenever you go on a casual nature walk you will hear the theme in the middle of the bush and wonder "what the hell"
And here I was thinking they should teach it that loon call they misuse so much in movies by playing it in scenes that aren't loon territory.
My one on one teacher taught me about a mockingbird, and I taught her about a lyrebird, and she was impressed.
The way the males dance and sing is absolutely adorable.
Lyrebird responds hey guys its working 😂
So, people get lost in the woods because they thought their friend called them when in fact, it’s these lia… I mean… lyrebirds?
Nice. Similarities to a Bird of Paradise
Imagine if animals could speak...they'd laugh at the names given to them.😅
First sound and "Car Alarm" as it's called later is actually blaster sound from Star Wars, most probably from a game.
It's possible that there was a kid that had a toy star wars gun that made that sound and Lyrebird liked it so much that it remembered it and uses it constantly.
Just make sure that vacuum isn't a Roomba.
This is the most amazing sounding bird , imitates a chainsaw!!! Amazing. It doesn’t even look real
This bird could make a strong career on SNL🤣
Absolutely Beautiful ❤️
To drive away competing mates, chases them while making sounds of chainsaws and gunshots😂
Thank you for enlightening me on something I should have already known, as an Aussie, the Albert lyrebird. I knew of the Superb lyrebird but the Albert was an unknown. I have had the good fortune to actually see the Superb Lyrebird in action at a sanctuary but as said never of the lesser, shyer poor cousin, the Albert lyrebird. Although nothing very showy about either both are Australia's native fauna and we should be better informed. I am aware there a so many nocturnal aboral natives that I do not know of as they reside in a warmer state or different environment to me, e.g. desert regions or are just very small and/or rare.
Hearing and seeing one of these elusive birds is great. It means I'm a long way from civilisation. Easier to hear than see. Thanks for the clip.
Imagine walking into a forest and this guy literally recreated WWI in front of you
Excellently done! Thanks for sharing.
I’d love a video about the spoonbill!! Please
Got called a chicken once, turned around and it was a mimicry bird. Long story short, it tasted good, *who's the chicken now bish*
So want to see Michael Winslow (Police Academy movies) interacting with one of these birds... 😂👍
Loving it! You did a wonderful job, and very entertaining as well. You did your homework on the subject at hand, and BROUGHT it. Job well done!
I guess its great we don't have them in North America, esp. USA, because they wouldn't stand a chance in thriving at ease with the greed of humans here. They would clear 40 trees to build a water fountain, if they thought they can somehow capitalize off it, adding money to their already extensive funds.
4:50 that looks so funny
YASSSSS!!! Thank you!!!
Love this bird, very clever, very pretty and very entertaining. 💖🐦💖
The car alarm sounds more like a 80s laser gun to me.
Pew, pew!
I'd roll a soundtrack of Star Wars just to hear lyre birds in the forest doing R2D2
The female lyrebird is pretty impressive too...
Awesome watch!
It’s super funny that this video came out near the end of my animal science lecture which went over an Australian wildlife sanctuary.
I love your earrings!
The vacuum cleaner had me going.I'm gonna just skip all of this but that was cool
The dude Lyrebirds are the ultimate players. Rakes in a bunch of chicks, knocks 'em up then never texts back.
Please cover Honduran White Bats!!! They are my favorite
Are they related to superb owls? Asking for a familiar.
Super beautiful and clever
This video was in fact Deepfaked by a lyrebird
“Jerry, I swear I heard a laser beam cannon coming from the forest…”
“Oh, a Lyre!”
“I’m not!!! I really did hear it, mate!”
“No, no…lyre..LYYYRREEE”
“JERRY I SWEAR. I HEARD A FREAKING LASER. I was so terrified I slipped my cigarette in my pocket and ran in. IM SCARED, JERRY! WHAT SHOULD WE DO?!? Hey.. is it getting hot in here?!”
“LISTEN MATE! LYRE, LYRE!!!….hey. HEY BRUCE!….YOUR PANTS ARE ON FIRE!!!!”
Hahahahahaha! Also, sorry Bruce. We didn’t believe you the first time.
I read this in ZeFrank's voice
I read this in ZeFrank's voice.
I love how it's name works on multiple levels
I'm not 100% sure but isn't the sound titled here as car alarm one of those 80s toy guns?
Im a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude
Dudeception?
Aranya, you are amazing ❤
So many cool birds in Australia 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🇦🇺
Excelente 👏👏👏
Imagine walking in the forest and then heard a gunshoot sound just to find that its just this bird making the sound
may you do the Quetzal as a bird? Or the bearded vulture?
the car alarm is actually a toy gun.
i love when you host the episodes you are the most beautiful human ive ever seen be with me
' ..... LIAR ?!' HA !
Wonderful 👏🏻👏🏻.Here’s a request , please make an episode on dholes or Asiatic wild dogs
"they'll mostly feed on ground insects..."
(Proceeds to name a bunch of invertebrates that aren't insects)
🤣🤣🤣
Love this though, all of the birdlogic vids are excellent
Have you covered grebes yet? Or cuckoos? Or bowerbirds? I'll stop 🤣☺️
We meet at last
R y'all going to breakdance fight?
To the death it is then
Vacuum cleaner? Sure… or a garbage disposal. That one seems to work every time.
These things need to be given that classic ringtone that goes DOO doo doooo doo DOO dooo dooo doooo Doo doo doo doo DOOOOO!! I would love to hear that.
Everybody gangsta until the bird starts mimicking human screaming-
Imagine how impressive it would be if a superb lyrebird could imitate the roar of the Tyrannosaurus rex
2:19 She said that with personal emotion 😅
Male Lyrebird while mimicking be like - Things I do for Love. 😜
I first learned about these birds from Ty the Tasmanian Tiger, where there was a lyrebird character who lied all the time
The way she pronunciate "lyre" sounds like "liar" bird which also makes sense😂
I hope this series lasts forever!!
That is one interesting bird.👍
You guys should do one on the Loon
Imagine thinking you heard a lion but it was just a bird
I guess you could you could call it a..... liar bird.
7:17 "Because of the implication..." bird.
When someone said that you're a liar.
Someone: "Now I realise that you're a liar (lyre)"
You : "I'm not a lyre, I'm eagle that freely flights away"
