Any Explanation Other Than Paranormal

I believe that.  Check out aussie Lyrebirds mimicking electronic devices in the bush.  Even chainsaws.  

Kind regards,

Wouldn't mimicking make them Liar-brids instead of Lyrebirds?

But yeah, crows mimic stuff, up to and including human speech, like parrots do. They also have a language among themselves, with regional accents and dialects. Believe it or not, crows know the difference between an empty handed man and a man holding a gun, and that distinction can be detected in their warning caws.

They also have names for each other, and even use names for certain humans. They can distinguish between individual humans, and remember how those humans treated them in the past.

Oddly, the bird talk DOES tie into the paranormal in a way - where do birds get this ability from, considering the tiny size of their brains? Birds' brains are barely big enough for them to know how to be birds. Where do the extra abilities come from? Might they be channeling information or abilities from sources outside themselves?
