My comments on the poem \"Birds align” by JackDiamond
Behaviour of cuckoos :
“A cuckoo can dart into an unattended nest, snatch up an egg, lay a close copy and be gone within 10 seconds. After hatching, some cuckoo chicks (though not the great spotted) instinctively shove their foster siblings and remaining eggs out of the nest, so as to have all the food to themselves.

“What is the difference between a fledgling and a nestling?
“A nestling is a baby bird that is pink with very little or no feathers. It still needs to be in the nest. A fledgling is a baby bird that has some feathers and can hop around. Its parents have pushed it out of the nest on purpose to help it learn how to fly.”
Thus, in some cases, the parents deliberately push the little ones out of the nest.
It is interesting to know what do birds experience when the little ones leave the nest. Do the parents feel grief ?... The little ones will eventually build their own nests, perhaps in the same area. They will still see the parents.
