Description

This episode—which is Number 54—is all about bird eggs. This is an important topic. Eggs are a fundamental aspect of bird biology. Recently, in Episode 49 of the podcast, I covered the topic of nests. So it seems like a logical next step for us to get the lowdown on eggs.Oology is the science of studying bird eggs. So today, we are all honorary oologists. We’re egg-heads on a mission to better understand how baby birds come into the world.~~ Leave me a review using Podchaser ~~Book RecommendationsThe Most Perfect Thing: Inside (and Outside) a Bird’s Egg [affiliate link]Links of InterestHow are Eggs Made (BBC/Attenborough clip) [VIDEO]Chicken embryo development animation [VIDEO]Bird Eggs Warn Each Other About Danger [VIDEO]Link to this episode on the Science of Birds websiteSupport the show
