Simultaneous viewing of own and parasitic eggs is not required for egg rejection by a cuckoo host [PDF]
Behavioral Ecology, 2013 Many hosts have evolved diverse cognitive mechanisms to recognize and reduce the cost of social parasitism. For example, great reed warblers Acrocephalus arundinaceus can accurately reject closely mimetic eggs of brood parasitic common cuckoos Cuculus canorus.

Egg recognition in Cinereous Tits (Parus cinereus): eggshell spots matter
Avian Research, 2019 Background Brood parasitic birds such as cuckoos (Cuculus spp.) can reduce their host’s reproductive success. Such selection pressure on the hosts has driven the evolution of defense behaviors such as egg rejection against cuckoo parasitism. Studies have
