A druid can only transform into a beast using their Wild Shape feature, and even then can only take the form of a beast they’ve seen before. Xanathar’s Guide to Everything includes a valuable guide on how to help druids who have just gained the Wild Shape feature determine what beasts they’ve seen before.

Can a druid take the form of a beast?
If we’re talking about the other druid actually changing form to show how it’s done, that’s probably also no by RAW, but there’s ambiguity. The specific rule is: you can use your action to magically assume the shape of a beast that you have seen before. A wild-shaped druid is a druid in beast form, not actually that beast.
What does conjure animals do to a druid?
Conjure Animals creates Fey rather than true beasts…yet the druid still learns what is needed to Wild Shape. This means that if seeing transformed Fey are enough to learn to Wild Shape into a beast then a druid watching a Wild Shaped druid can presumably learn enough for themselves as well.
