There is egg predation, chick loss and sometimes possibly just some “bad parenting”! One pair of Pied Oystercatchers laid eggs the first year and did not appear to realise they were supposed to sit on them, but they have since learnt it is an essential part of rearing a chick and they have done so since.

Or maybe they are quite excited about clarifying that Muscicapa latirostris is the wrong name for this bird while Muscicapa dauurica is right. In Common Snipes , apparently, the wing shape is correlated with the migration strategy of individual birds. Apparently, the authors of this paper think so.

And the nandu, a South American rhea, has an intriguing chick-survival strategy: a week before hatching, the male (who does the incubating) pushes one egg out of the nest. Yes, that’s right – she adds an epilogue. They fly at night and end up in places you wouldn’t expect them.”.

For New Zealand, he describes each of the Subantarctic Islands and mainland islands and beaches where its nine Penguin species are found, including endemic species like Snares, Erect-crested, and Royal, and suggests strategies for seeing them all. It is not always easy to get the right color in printed photographs.

They are two strikingly different strategies, both of which seem to working well this spring, as everywhere one turns there is new life on the Tundra. I had hoped to have some Semipalmated Plover chick photos for comparison but as of last night they seem to be still at the egg stage. But in the right light, they glow!

Steal and eat their eggs? But for millions of years up until now you haven’t had an international audience of thousands of highly social mammals with their own particular quirks and evolutionary strategies watching your every move around the clock. Again, I know you’re just doing what you gotta do.

Therefore, humans are fish with feet, right? That was probably a great strategy for rapid reproduction … live very fast and die very young. That strategy determined the fact that all mammals would have the risk of somatic mutations that accumulate over time affecting their eggs.

For the authors of this study on the Sabota Lark , this makes them end the abstract of their paper with the slightly pompous and simultaneously slightly unambitious claim that “This study provided a foundation for future comparative studies on avian life-history strategies in larks.” She also laid eggs in Melba Finch nests.

Within the bird world, so many different strategies and methods of mating and reproduction have evolved, it simply boggles the mind. There is some debate on the reproductive/genetic benefits of this, although a common view is that individuals don’t want all their eggs in one genetic basket, so to speak (pun intended, zing!).

A nest wasn’t found until 1903, which set off a craze for Kirtland’s Warbler skins, nests, and eggs. The good included the development of a new, more open, conservation strategy that embraced communication and education of the community. Those of us who contemplate the trip need to know how to do it right.
