Although a noted songster, possessing a sweet song, even during the night, the nightingale does not imitate other birds songs.
The mockingbird does, however, and even cell phone rings and other human made sounds. The mockingbird can imitate up to 80 other birds songs, and this appears to be an instinctive behavior.
