A neglected cost of brood parasitism: Egg punctures by Shiny Cowbirds during inspection of potential host nests
Parasitized hosts of the Shiny Cowbird (Molothrus bonariensis) suffer several costs, and among the most important is the loss of eggs through egg punctures inflicted by the parasite. Unparasitized nests also have eggs damaged by cowbirds, but researchers usually ignore these losses. To quantify this...
