What a lyer!

Taken from the BBC - David Attenborough presents the amazing lyre bird, which mimics the calls of other birds - and chainsaws and camera shutters - in this video clip from The Life of Birds.

My first recommendation would have to be this fantastic forum, full of great recipes for both your birds and your fat belly
