The Cuckoo is notorious for laying an egg in another bird's nest, leaving the host bird to raise the cuckoo chick. Once the cuckoo chick hatches, it instinctively pushes any unhatched eggs and chicks out of the nest, leaving the cuckoo chick the sole occupant.
cuckoo i s called lazy bird, because it do not build it's own nest.
Yes
Usually - it would be called a 'nest'. However - cuckoos don't build their own nest to incubate their eggs - they lay their eggs in the nests of other birds - for the 'foster mother' to incubate the eggs instead.

I Think so
It takes the baby bird 13-15 days of hatching to leave the nest and go out on it's own. Robins made a nest in some fake flowers I had on the back porch. It was amazing! I think it took them as long to build the nest as it did for the eggs to hatch and the babies fly away. Once the eggs hatched within three days we started seeing there heads poke from the nest. In two weeks actually from the day they were born the nest was empty.
The cuckoo is often described as a "lazy" bird because it engages in a behavior known as brood parasitism. Instead of building its own nest and raising its young, the female cuckoo lays her eggs in the nests of other bird species, leaving them to care for her chicks. This strategy allows cuckoos to conserve energy and increase their reproductive success without the demands of parental care. While this behavior may seem lazy, it is an evolutionary adaptation that has proven effective for their survival.
A cuckoo burrow is a narrow tunnel or chamber in the ground where a cuckoo bird lays its eggs. The cuckoo does not build its own nest but instead lays its eggs in the nests of other bird species, tricking them into incubating and raising its young.
A baby learns it from its mother while it is young as it learns everything else. A bird building a nest is an instinctive behavior they are not taught how to do it they just know how to do it. The nest for chicks is prepared before they are born and the chicks leave before more chicks are born so they don't have the opportunity to learn in the sense humans learn at school, how to build a nest.
Cuckoos do this.
Cowbirds. They lay their eggs in other birds' nests, creating a hazard for the chicks in the nest, because cowbird chicks are usually stronger than the birds in the nest they hatch in. The parents just try to feed them all and the cowbird gets the most attention.
it finds its own safe place to lay its eggs . you cant tell a mom where to go during laobor. there is one specific place they wan to go
