Brown-headed cowbirds lay their eggs in the nests of other birds, so that the young are raised by foster parents. Here is a chipping sparrow feeding a brown-headed cowbird juvenile that is significantly bigger than itself. The background soundtrack is from a Flight of the Conchords episode that I was watching at the time.
