Index of Subjects Hi Lois: The best information I have come across in regards to starling immitation is in Mozart's Starling. The following link provides information from studies into this aspect and answers your questions about the time involved in learning different sound immitations. http://www.starlingtalk.com/mozart1.htm Also, a google of Mozart's Starling will provide other articles and info. Sincerely, James >From: Lois Codling <loiscodling@hfx.eastlink.ca> >Reply-To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca >To: Nature NS <naturens@chebucto.ns.ca> >Subject: [NatureNS] Imitations >Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2007 19:41:50 -0300 > >Speaking of Killdeer, James, I heard one about 3 wks. ago, but realized >after awhile that the sound was coming from a Starling.
