Chinese penduline tit buries eggs to prevent them from blowin' in the wind

Pers / media: OnderzoekAcademic

Description

Many animal species bury their eggs, for a number of different reasons. While it is firmly established that Eurasian penduline tits bury them because of sexual conflict, their Chinese counterparts seem to have an entirely different reason. Experimental manipulations show that for these birds burial prevents the eggs from falling out of the nest in strong winds. The results of this study by Dutch and Chinese biologists were published in the journal Animal Behaviour on 14 May.
