Great Mimics

For nearly ten years we had a starling who sat on our roof, and practised buzzard calls - he was so good he fooled us often into searching the sky, while he chortled away on the chimney pot.  Alas, this summer he's moved on, but this a.m we had a young one on our neighbours roof doing lapwing impressions - not the full 'tio but all the preliminary quiet sounds made by lapwings.  NIce to find skills live on generation by generation , espcially in birds.
