This video shows the amazing Superb lyre bird (yes, that's it's actual name), capable of incredible feats of mimicry. Sure, he's impressive, but it's not until around 1:54 when things start getting strange. At 2:30, they get seriously weird. Watch and hear for yourself:
Here's another lyre bird at a zoo in Adelaide, Australia, that imitates not only the sounds of nearby construction but also human voices with uncanny accuracy:

That bird is seriously weird.....wasn't clear from either of the videos whether the female found the sounds of construction or car sirens attractive. Guess he suffers from not knowing who he is and constantly imitates everyone else......I have met a few people like this.
