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. Cuckoo eggs often mimic the size, shape, and color of the host's eggs, increasing the chances that the host will care for the cuckoo chick once it hatches. This strategy allows cuckoo chicks to benefit from the care and resources of other birds.
