Cuckoo Killer • 01.26.2024

Fun fact: When a Cuckoo finds a suitable host nest she removes one of their eggs and lays her egg in its place. Then, when the Cuckoo chicks hatch they push the host eggs or babies out of the nest, allowing them to eat all the food brought by their new mom. 🐣🪺🥞

    fun fact: you can tell weather or not a post is uploaded by the actual artist if there's a little checkmark next to the artist tag

    to date this is the only useful implementation of a verification system on any website as it's actually reliant on the user confirming their identity with the site rather than follower count or by paying for it

  • I really always wondered why other birds don't realize they aren't raising their own.

    They don't call them "bird brains" for nothing.

    What does the National Health Service have to do with this?

    Cuckoos retaliate if the "adoptive parents" realise something is up and smash/get rid of their egg.

    Said retaliation is destroying the other eggs in the nest.
