Hmm, I can only remember Ron imitating the sound of the hooves to scare 
Umbridge at the end of OotP, and maybe George imitating Percy in 
DH: "Well, we do look to our prefects ..." etc. :-). There were also 
other cases, but they are not exactly sound imitations - for example in 
HBP, when Ginny does imitations of Ron and Harry at a Quidditch 
practice ("Sectumsempra"), or Lynda's example of Ron doing "a cruel but 
accurate impression" of Hermione in Transfiguration. Maybe you are 
right and there are more, I just can't remember right now.


zanooda, who also doesn't have time to look through the books for more 
examples :-)
