  • A bird was heard accurately mimicking the sound of a police siren in the English town of Bicester.
    Officers were fooled into thinking the sirens installed in their vehicles were faulty because the impression was so precise, authorities said.

    It's a Starling in the UK. They have a habit of copying sounds in their environment and given this is an urban UK area, I know for sure it's this bird. If you watch them closely on a wet day, they put their head to the ground before digging with their beak to look for food. They're a pretty common bird and the male and female are easily distinguishable. Happy bird hunting ❤️

    Conures are not known for their ability to mimic. I had one that mimicked the fire alarm low battery signal, causing me to change the batteries three times. I thought the first two were too old so bought a new battery. The beep beep started up as soon as I went to bed. I crept downstairs and caught the little troublemaker! She also learned to mimic the dishwasher wash cycle. She was a cool little bird.

    We have the same type of birds in the USA. They are called mockingbirds. Thank God, they don't mock police sirens.
