How Do Oriental Reed Warblers Recognize Cuckoo Eggs? [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionOriental reed warblers (Acrocephalus orientalis) are favorite hosts of common cuckoos (Cuculus canorus). However, the cognitive basis and underlying mechanisms of the host egg discrimination behavior remain not well understood.

The limits of egg recognition: testing acceptance thresholds of American robins in response to decreasingly egg-shaped objects in the nest [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Some hosts of avian brood parasites reduce or eliminate the costs of parasitism by removing foreign eggs from the nest (rejecter hosts). In turn, even acceptor hosts typically remove most non-egg-shaped objects from the nest, including broken shells ...

Light matters: Nest illumination alters egg rejection behavior in a cavity-nesting bird
Avian Research, 2022 Egg discrimination by cavity-nesting birds that build nests under dim light conditions was presumed to depend on nest luminance, although this hypothesis has rarely been tested.
