🐻: I've heard that hornbills are strictly monogamous (mating with one partner FOR LIFE). Is that true? 🐧: JUST LIKE YOU 🐻: Hey, you're just exaggerating 😂 🐧: 😆🤭 🗣️: It is true, they are monogamous. During the mating season, when they are reproducing, they lay their eggs inside a tree hollow. 🗣️: The mother incubates the eggs inside and seals the entrance of the hollow. The father's duty is to bring food and feed them. If the father is hunted or dies, the mother and her chicks will also die inside the hollow 🥹 GREEN HEART SPARK SUSTAINABILITY #EnvifundGreenHeartJG #JossGawin

It is that time of year when hornbills nest in the Anamalai Hills of Tamil Nadu, and the valleys reverberate with their deep calls and the powerful whoosh of their wings, sounding like a helicopter in flight. They are truly the icons of this landscape. It was truly magical for me to capture a Great Hornbill mother feeding her chick, an indication that the chick is nearing fledging and is almost ready to leave the nest. During nesting, the female seals herself inside a tree cavity, remaining there through incubation and early chick development, completely dependent on the male for food. As the chick grows the female eventually breaks out of the sealed nest. From this stage onward, both parents take part in feeding, signaling that the chick is in its final phase of growth before its first flight. In this fleeting moment you are struck by one of nature's most extraordinary stories ❤️🙌 #Hornbills #TNForest #wildlifeconservation #AnamalaiTigerReserve

After hatching, some cuckoo chicks instinctively shove their foster siblings and remaining eggs out of the nest, so as to have all the food to themselves. It thinks the tomato is his brother and throws it out of the nest! 😂😂

For those who may have missed the news, the Australian 2025 Peregrine Falcon breeding season has commenced and the mating pair at 367 Collins Street, Melbourne have three eggs (laid 23, 26 and 29 August). Mum and Dad just did a changeover for brooding duty.

Show me a more beautiful love story than this on #ValentinesDay. The male #Hornbill feeding the female, who has locked herself in nest to raise the kids. This he will do for few months, daily. Hornbills have partners for lifetime. When they are expecting they search for a cavity or old nest. After finding one, the female enters into the nest and seal from inside with whatever material is available. Now the time tests them. Male keep searching for food and keep bringing that to the nest. While female remains locked in the nest for next 3-4 months. As the kid is growing the male has to increase the frequency. With this he has to feed himself and also need to protect the nest from predators. If the male is poached on the way the family dies waiting in the nest. Isn’t it the loveliest love story !!

VDM COMES FOR DAVIDO AND HIS UNCLE.. Davido I hope this is the first and last time you talk about politics. You’ve shown time and again that your interest has always been about your family. The only time you seem to care about Osun State and Nigeria is when there’s an election that directly involves your family.

The female osprey at the Fairgrounds was relentless in protecting her eggs through last night's hail storm. She was pounded by pea-sized hail and never left the nest. The eggs remain intact and we hope to see chicks in a few weeks. Watch live at

The egg belongs to an emu. Here's a video of it. Here in the video, it is the male that's brooding over the eggs. Once female emus lay eggs, they leave it to the male and start looking for another male. After mating, they lay eggs for that one to look after too. They keep doing this as much as they can till the mating season is over. It's the male that'll look after the eggs and the chicks when they hatch. The female only lays egg and move on. Tainkyu ✌🏾

In a Historic move, Government of Tamil Nadu announces pioneering initiatives for Hornbill Conservation in the State Assembly today. TN Forest Department is set to enhance hornbill conservation efforts, marking a significant move in protecting these keystone bird species. The Great Hornbill, Malabar Grey-Hornbill, Malabar Pied-Hornbill and the Indian Grey-Hornbill crucial for forest ecosystems are under threat due to habitat loss. As part of this initiative, the state has announced 1. A Centre for Excellence to be set up for Hornbill Conservation at the Anamalai Tiger Reserve. 2. Identify and protect nesting trees, including those on private lands, and recognize landowners as “Hornbill Protectors.” 3. Develop Guidelines for safeguarding nest trees of all the four hornbill species inside and out of protected areas 4. Take up ecological restoration efforts to plant and protect key food and nesting trees like Dipterocarpus indicus, Cryptocarya anamalayana, and Myristica malabaricum, many of which are endangered 5. Take up survey and population estimation of hornbills especially of lesser known malabar pied hornbills With this bold initiative in wildlife conservation we are committed to secure a thriving future for hornbills and the forests they sustain #TNhornbillconservation #TNBudget2025 #Hornbills #TNForest TN DIPR video Pravin Shanmughanandam Dhanu Paran

Parrots care for their chicks in a remarkable way, you know. They do not spoon-feed them. They also have no mammary glands the way mammals do. And yet a chick still grows from a naked, blind, soft-beaked creature into a bird that can fly, mimic, and live a very long life. The secret lies in an organ that seems, at first, to be nothing more than a food pouch: the crop at the base of the neck. A newly hatched parrot belongs to the group of helpless young. It cannot keep itself warm, cannot find food, and certainly cannot crack a seed. If the parents merely brought whole seeds back to the nest, the chick would starve before their eyes. Evolution chose another path: the parents eat first, process the food inside their own bodies, and then regurgitate it. The process begins away from the nest. The father, and later the mother as well, searches for seeds, fruit, flowers, and sometimes insects. The food is swallowed into the crop, an elastic muscular sac in the esophagus. There, saliva, mucus, and body heat turn hard seeds into a warm, mash-like mixture. Cells lining the crop also slough off and mix into the food, adding a thick substance rich in protein and fat, rather like the “crop milk” of pigeons. It is not milk in the mammalian sense, but it is enough for a still-developing digestive system to absorb. Back at the nest, the scene changes completely. The chicks stretch their necks, gape, and call without pause. A parent locks its beak into the chick’s mouth in a crosswise grip, then contracts the crop in rhythm. Food is pumped in bursts. The chick answers with a pumping reflex, opening its throat at the right moment to swallow and closing the glottis so it does not choke. The motion looks rough, but it is extremely precise. This is not vomiting. Vomiting forces stomach contents outward without control. Regurgitation delivers a prepared portion, aimed and timed. In the first days, the work is clearly divided. The mother hardly leaves the nest because she must brood. The father forages, returns, and feeds the mother; she then feeds the chicks. Once the young can regulate their own temperature, both parents go out to forage and both feed the chicks directly. Each return to the nest is not a ceremony. It is a work shift, repeated through the day and, in the earliest stage, sometimes through the night. This way of feeding also explains why parrots lay so few eggs. A clutch is usually only a few. The eggs hatch on different days, so one nest always holds larger chicks with wider gapes. The first-hatched are easily favored. In some species, such as macaws, if a youngest chick hatches several days too late, the parents may feed it less, or even abandon it. That is the cold side of an expensive strategy: invest heavily in each individual, rather than spread care evenly across the brood. As the chicks grow, the meals change. The thick mash of the first days becomes coarser, with pieces of fruit and softened seeds. Near weaning, the parents deliberately space out the feedings. They do not indulge. They push the young to eat on their own, to fly, and to recognize what can be eaten in the wild. This stage lasts weeks to months, depending on the species. Large parrots may still be guided long after they have left the nest.

The Department of Fisheries Malaysia (DOF), through the Rantau Abang Turtle and Marine Ecosystem Centre (TCIC), recorded three leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) landings along the Terengganu coast this month, involving 195 eggs that were transferred to a controlled incubation site for protection. Director-General of Fisheries Datuk Adnan Hussain said the records provide important data to monitor leatherback turtle landings, protect the eggs and improve their survival chances. The first nesting was recorded at Pasir Putih Beach, Marang, on Sept 1, involving 44 eggs, followed by 81 eggs at Rantau Abang Beach on Sept 13 and 70 eggs at Kuala Abang Beach today. He said conservation officers successfully located and measured the nesting mother turtle during the third landing at Kuala Abang Beach at about 2am today.

Fun fact: When a Cuckoo finds a suitable host nest she removes one of their eggs and lays her own egg in its place. Then, when the Cuckoo chicks hatch they push the host eggs or babies out of the nest, allowing it to eat all food brought by their new mom. 🐣🪺🥞
