Should you remove cowbird egg from finch nest?
The Cowbird never has its own nest - it uses the finch nest as its host (read: parasite.) The Cowbird egg will hatch first & will push the other eggs or baby finches out of the nest. Other species of birds will get rid of the Cowbird eggs, but finches don't seem to. I always remove them when found.
Does the cowbird lay eggs in another birds nest?

What symbiotic relationship is the cowbirds and other birds?

Which bird does not makes its own nest?
A cuckoo doesn't make a nest of it's own. Instead it lays an egg in another birds nest. The cuckoo relies on the other (smaller) birds to raise it's young for it. Cuckoo birds lay their eggs in clocks. I thought everyone knew that. It is the Brown-headed Cowbird that lays their eggs in other birds' nests.
What has a symbiotic relationship with a cardinal?
The northern cardinal and the brown-headed cowbird have a symbiotic relationship. The brown-headed cowbird lays its eggs in the cardinal's nest (and in the nests of other species, too, such as the yellow warbler). This harms the cardinal's chances to reproduce. It's a parasitic relationship.
What is a symbiotic relationship between a blue jay and another bird?
It's not symbiotic, it's parasitic. The cowbird lays it's eggs in the nest of other birds expecting them to hatch and feed it. In some cases when the host bird rejects the egg the cowbird has been known to return to the nest and ransack it in what scientists call Mafia behavior.
What kind of bird builds a small nest and lays 3 small blue eggs and 1 speckled egg?
there are two birds in the process of this: the house finch and the brown-headed cowbird. the house finch is the one that built the nest and laid the blue eggs. however, that speckled egg was laid by the cowbird. the cowbird does this to use finches to raise their own children, not really regarding the harm caused to the baby finches.
Which bird lays egg in another bird nest?
The Cuckoo bird -- well, actually the cuckoo doesn't "steal" the nest, the female just lays her egg there and let's the original nest owners raise HER young. The Black-headed Grosbeak -- is known to steal parts & pieces of another bird's nest to construct her own. But Sparrows steal nests from Martins, sometimes forcing Martin eggs or even young ones out, letting them fall to the ground. Starlings, in turn, steal nests from Sparrows. The Brown-headed Cowbird also lays its eggs in another's nest and leaves others to raise its young. A mourning dove has been observed taking over a newly built Robins nest.
Which bird lays its eggs in another bird's nest?
The cuckoo!
Are there any birds in New England that lay their eggs in a different birds nest and the other birds end up caring for the extra bird?
Yes. The Brown Headed Cowbird lays its eggs in a different birds nest while the parents are away. So the mother bird of the nest thinks its their egg. She will raise it until it can fly away on its own.
