Hummingbird. In all three groups of birds with vocal learning abilities -- songbirds, parrots and hummingbirds -- the brain structures for singing and learning to sing are embedded in areas controlling movement.

Glad to read your post. Hummies are indeed intelligent. If you can get close enough and gain their confidence, you'll learn a lot. ;)
