I shouldn't have laughed so hard when the baby cuckoo threw the other eggs out. The momma warbler is just watching it like, "No, don't do that Junio-- *egg falls out* OH SHIT. *goes after it*"

Cuckoos don't do things just to do them.
Yeah I remember tossing the other eggs out of the nest.

Have you even met a muslim before? Do you know anything about middle eastern history? Or about the four pillars? Or the difference between suni and shiite islam? Or are you the type who doesn't do anything without the approval of Anne Coulter or Glen Beck? It's people like you that give Americans a bad name overseas. Take your little agenda and go fuck yourself with it.

How is it hate speech to speak the truth?
Muhammad was a perverted depraved mass-murdering psychopath. His version of Islam is a hateful & genocidal & abhorrently perverted version of a religion that existed for 2,500 years before he came along. Thanks to him 274 million people have been violently murdered, & 25 million black africans & sold abused as slaves, millions of white women repeatedly raped as sex slaves, it continues to this day. Our supermarkets sell slave produce from Islamic country

No, I'm saying you're a troll...or rather you're a wannabe demagogue who thinks typing hate speech on nature videos makes you a revolutionary simply because it helps you avoid dealing with your own feelings of inadequacy. Nobody here gives a shit about what you think. They came here to see birds, not listen to you try to make yourself feel important.

Statistical evidence confirms that peace is non-theistic. I'm an atheist spreading peace by spreading truth, because the truth is antithetical to Islam & Islam is antithetical to peace. All Muslims are hate-criminals & their mentality is identical to that of the cuckoo in the way they propagate in countries they claim to hate & do so with the intention of violently dominating the indigenous population. This behaviour has been observed repeatedly for centuries all over the world. Peace.

Ducks laying their eggs in the nests of other species of ducks is actually very common. What's cool about the cuckoo duck is that it commensalizes a bird in a totally different order.

You don't seem to realize the fact that the comments section of a youtube video on cuckoos is not much of a soapbox.
