Can the lyrebird do a decent imitation of breaking glass?
Thanks.

Probably, check out Chook the (recently deceased) Lyrebird:

My 2c is that they would need to hear it a number of times.

Someone on another group reckons nothing living can imitate breaking glass -
I reckon if anything could, it'd be the lyrebird.

I wouldn't expect it to pull it out of nowhere.

AIUI mimics will copy something they hear repeatedly.
pedestrian crossing, ringtone, car alarm, etc...
Breaking glass is chaotic sound, you don't get the same sound
repeated. It's also polyphonic each of the several fragments oscillate
in several modes at different frequencies and decay at diffrerent eates.
