Half of July

We're half way through summer in mid July and it is my birthday later today. I was thinking about the passing of time and how the flow never stops. Having a birthday in the middle of summer has its quirks, here in the north side of the planet you can have a BBQ because it is warm outside during this time of the year. It's also a great time of the year to go out on adventures. It is a great time of year to go exploring in your car and see new places you have never been before. 

I was wondering if a dinosaur ever existed that had a similar physiology to parrots. If they had vocal cords that could mimic every type of sound. Perhaps they would call it the Michael-Winslow-Saurus, it would be able to mimic any sound, even human speech. Perhaps it would mimic the mating call of its prey and lure it into a bushy creek where it would ambush it for a meal. The victim creature would hear the sound of another one of its kind doing a mating call, "sqwark sqwark, sex sex plooop plooop", "Sqwark Sqwark, sex sex ploop ploop". It would walk into a bushy area in pursuit of the sound and get ambushed by the sly dinosaur. If you met the Michael-Winslow-Saurus you would shout, "I taste horrible" the creature would shout your own words back at you before chasing you. I imagined it would be like a small raptor type dinosaur.
