Parrots are generally not nest-builders, like other birds. They tend to nest in hollows in trees or, for ground-dwelling parrots, hollows dug out in the ground or made in dry heath.

The only parrot which builds a nest of sticks is the Quaker Parrot, also known as the Monk Parakeet, of South America.

Cuckoos are known for their brood parasitism, where they lay their eggs in the nests of other bird species. The female cuckoo typically observes potential host nests, waits for the host to leave, and then deposits one of her eggs, often removing one of the host's eggs to reduce detection.
