Another amazing bird worth knowing about is the Lyrebird: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=VjE0Kdfos4Y" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=VjE0Kdfos4Y</a><p>It copies not just the songs of other birds, but man-made sounds as well! Check out the link, it&#x27;s mindblowing.

I don&#x27;t remember now where I read it, but crows will lead hunters to game. There was a certain signal the hunters would give to tell the crow that they were hunting, and the crow would fly over the game and dip its wing in a certain way to let the hunters know where it was without tipping it off.

A bird kills other birds in the nest, then leads humans to annihilate bee nests? This thing is pure evil.
