Here's everything you never knew about Cuckoos and Brood Parasites.
This video answers all of the following questions:
- What birds lay their eggs in other nests?
- What are Cuckoos?
- Do cuckoo chicks push other chicks out of the nest?
- What are brood parasites?
- Do cuckoos lay their eggs in wren nests?
These questions are answered by examining footage of a cuckoo egg in a wren nest, seeing the cuckoo hatchling push its siblings out of the nest, and then observing how the cuckoo chick vastly outgrows it's adoptive bird mother / host.
