This is the most amazing bird I've ever heard: http://funnyjunk.com/movies/1448/Bird+Mimics/

Quoting from [germex]:

As Street already said, they only reproduce short "bursts" of sounds. A whole song, like the National Anthem of Indonesia, would be too much for them.

One day you'll have to explain why you call yourself the "Yoyo".

Oh, I was not refferring to thr Lyrl Bird. I was talk about a bird my friend own in Indonesia. Can't actually recall the name of the bird, but this bird, I think is a family of the parakeet.

She can actually whistle the national anthem, and also mimic many sound, including the alarm clock. With have situation when I was awaken by the alrm sound create by this bird. Just like your description earlier in the post. Nearly cook the bird in Curry Rendang for that.

Yoyo is a nickname given to me by the handicapped children of the Red Cross home I worked with many years back. Partly due to my surname "Yeo". I kind of like it, so it stick.

 

Well, it would be neat to have a bird that can whistle a whole melody, but not the alarm clock, telephone, etc. For that I would probably cook it in mole or chile, according to Mexican tradition.

So you are also a master of many trades? Looks like long gone are those times when somebody was practically born for example blacksmith (because his dad was one) and continued being one until his dead. But these kinds of experiences are helpful to master life in all its forms and ways.

it is actually a case of Jack of all trade and master of none.

The bird has died of old age last week when I was there, you have no chance to cook it.

Well, let's hope he died a peaceful and calm death, with your friend humming a new melody to him. - And as far as cooking birds is concerned, there are more - even rattlesnakes that reportedly taste a lot like chicken.

Quoting from [rgs_frankyeo]:

Yes, I will be hanging around for a while, thats what a Yoyo suppose to do anyway.

Its that bird for real or lip-sync-ing. I do have one that can sing the national anthem of Indonesia. The full song.

What a strange coincidence, I also hear a bird that sings the National anthem of Indonesia, but it can only go on the first bar.




"Indonesia, tanah air ku, " and no more. It is a magpie family, watched the magpie birds in cartoon series of two birds called the magpies.




That bird is in a house at Puliat, near to the airport. The owner is a Developer.

It is a different birds. I stay with my friend in Menteng, central Jakarta. My friend used to have more then a few dozens bird from all over Indonesia.

I am no good with name, to me, all brids are the same. We have 2 of the same kind, but 1 just refuse to sing. Maybe she is dumb, I think, didn't get around to ask her

You might think I'm joking, but it's true that animals in general respond quite well to harmony. What is harmony in this case? Well, you'll you have to "ask" the bird. That means, maybe you should play different kinds of tunes to it and see the reaction. Classic music, semi-classic and "oldies but goodies" are the kinds of music they typically respond to best.

Oh, come on, wouldn't you like to perform a duet with your birdie?
