I was away from gadgets for some time today. So I was reading from this book by Parragon Publishers. The Book is named as "ANIMALS: DISCOVER THE AMAZING DIVERSITY OF NATURE" So I checked these (perhaps endemic !) birds found in Australia only. May be @JudyEv might have talked about these earlier? As per the book, they are very melodic. Plus they can imitate other birds and even sounds of inanimate objects like Motors or Mobile phones. Image : Captured from the book.

I checked with the tags and no, I haven't written about them. I do know that they are great imitators of just about anything. Thanks for telling us all about them.

@DianneN Yes very unique and interesting! Just imagine a bird giving out the sound of a mobile phone ringing! By the way, how is your eye's condition? I hope that you are not straining your eyes for mylotting?
