Rare Recording not aired before ...

Several years ago, when I was young and adventurous, I joined a scientific exploration team deep in the jungle in search of a very rare, almost extinct, bird. This seagull looking bird had learnt the uncanny skill of mimicking sounds it heard around it. Scientists believed this was as a defence mechanism to frighten predators away. Anyway, I was a young reporter at the time, in search of adventure, and I joined this team to record this bird in full song. Here is a sound track from a short film which we made ...

  2. ...you have lived an amazing life. When you went to the jungle, did you take bug spray?

    1. Yes, bug spray was essential in case we ran out of sun-cream.

      God bless, Tom.

  4. And here I thought only the mynah bird was a master mimic! Better than AI, that one.

    Who'd have guessed, rude motorists exist everywhere -- even in the jungle!

    1. Yes, it is a clever bird indeed. I believe it mimics cars which it has heard when visiting the city nearby, or when on holiday abroad.

      The actual name of the bird is Lyre Bird. Honest.

      God bless, Mevely.
