2D imitations:

A brown thrasher may sing over 1,100 song types—mimicked from other birds—within thick shrubs.



This morning I heard it do robin and cardinal.

Then, a tangent: A meow-like call, and the birdlike chirps of the aroused housecat in the windowsill, got me thinking it was another type of mimic—a catbird.

I had to look to confirm its identity.
