Crafty Hornbill Cements in
His Mate at Hatching Time
The hornbill of South Africa is
a master at dealing with the
“deadlier of the species.” This
crafty bird chooses a hollow tree
for his nest; when the female
starts to lay her eggs the malfe
quickly seals her in the cavity
with mud, leaving an opening only
large enough to insert his beak in
order to bring food to her.
Thereafter he does not have to
worry about the female brooding
the eggs, or any philandering on
her part, until after the young are
old enough to fly. Then he tears
away the cement and liberates his j
captive.
