    Parent bird doing an excellent job tending and feeding the hatchling. For those put off by the parent's handling of baby bird droppings: Parent birds don't actually swallow (to eat) the droppings, which are encased in a special sac lining, but instead, the parent holds it either in their crop or their bill. The parent then exits the nest, flies a distance, and disposes of the droppings elsewhere. This is a technique (fecal sac removal) which passerine birds use to keep nests clean (prevent parasites from infesting the nest and chicks) and deter predators by disguising the location of their nest. Otherwise, if a predator saw or smelled the droppings, it would be an indicator that a vulnerable chick is up in a nest, making it a target. Birds are truly amazing! I see a ripening tomato 🍅 right beside the nest; am betting the kindly humans will let that tomato go and wait for the next so as not to disturb the feathered family 😉

    since so many of the comments were claiming that the eggs were actually the bird's own eggs or that the chick in the nest was a cuckoo bird that had already hatched, i took it upon myself to do a quick bit of research. the mother bird shown in the video is called a red-whiskered bulbul, native to Asia. the eggs in the nest were most definitely NOT those of a red-whiskered bulbul, as their eggs are heavily speckled. so no, the mother was not pushing her own eggs out of the nest. the chick in the nest also looks like a young red-whiskered bulbul, as the juveniles lack the red cheeks like the parents. most baby birds look almost nothing like the adult bird. the baby bird in the nest is likely not a cuckoo and is in fact a baby red-whiskered bulbul. as for if the eggs in the nest were a cuckoo's eggs, i'm not entirely sure but it's definitely possible. cuckoo eggs can vary wildly in appearance and they often mimic the appearance of the bird eggs that the cuckoo is trying to parasitize. obviously the eggs in the nest look nothing like a red-whiskered bulbul, but it could be that they are a cuckoo's eggs and that the cuckoo who laid them there usually parasitizes the nest of a different kind of bird. that would explain why the eggs don't look similar to the bulbul's if the cuckoo's eggs aren't even supposed to look like that particular species. i will say though, cuckoos typically only lay 1 egg in a host's nest. since there are 2 eggs in the nest in the video, this makes me suspect that the person who filmed this may have placed them there to see what the mother bird would do. in that case, i have no idea what kind of eggs they are. i'm not saying this is definitely the case, but it's certainly a possibility. TLDR: • bird in the video is a red-whiskered bulbul •the eggs in the nest definitely do not belong to it •the baby in the nest is likely also a red-whiskered bulbul •eggs in the nest might be a cuckoo's eggs, but also could have been placed there by a human thanks for your time ✌️👍

    I’m not convinced those are cuckoo eggs. The eggs of brood parasites tend to hatch much earlier than the other eggs. I think those are the bulbul’s own eggs that never hatched.

    It's really unusual to see Cuckoo eggs so white, but they're definitely not the Bulbul's eggs! | I enjoy researching to learn about things I have no prior knowledge of! My grandson said he wished that more people would do the same before commenting on something they know nothing about. | I agree with Gary Gengar that possibly a human placed those eggs in the nest.

    Parents: brings food Chick: thank you, here is your reward poops 😆
  • So cute when it looks like the mom looks like she’s pausing to look at the baby wondering why it’s eating so much.

    Absolutely fascinating. I love watching baby birds grow up. I felt terrible when I had two families of wrens near my house that had problems. They're kind of ground nesters. I had a nest in some bricks that I didn't know about until my dog got two fledglings. The third made it out alive. And at the same time there was a nest in a rose bush that got raided by another animal.

    She's doing a good job of getting the worms off those tomato plants. Everybody needs one of these.
  • @MrTeko75
    I've never been able to get over a parent bird consuming its child's poop bags.
  • @sandgrownun66
    The care and attention taken to make that nest is impressive.
  • A point to consider, since the fledgling is so much older those eggs are definitely not hers. And birds will discard unhatched eggs after a few days as they are typically not viable.

    Me: "That's a huge-ass grasshopper. You can't eat that, baby bird. Be reasonable." Bird: [swallows entire grasshopper in under a second] The only reason we are alive is because the only dinosaurs left are so small...
  • The way it just toots its bootie up and she grabs it. I'm glad im.nit a bird.😅

    Ma’am was too smart to tell the eggs apart. This bird needs a Oscar

    "i will say though, cuckoos typically only lay 1 egg in a host's nest. since there are 2 eggs in the nest in the video, this makes me suspect that the person who filmed this may have placed them there to see what the mother bird would do." Yes, total agree, it is a man-made film.

    Beautiful view inside a birds house, watching mother feeding her hungry baby a variety of food, then cleaning its bottom afterwards. :face-fuchsia-poop-shape::face-red-heart-shape:
