 Hoodwinking would-be predators, the Cape penduline tit (Remiz pendulinus) performs an elaborate charade in a nest ingeniously designed to protect its young. Upon arriving at the nest--a waterproof sack woven from plant fibers and spider webs--a parent bird goes into what appears to be the entrance. Soon, however, it looks out and, seeing no danger, reaches up to tug at what appears to be an awning over the entrance. This opens to reveal a hollow tube: the real entrance to the nesting chamber. In theory, at least, snakes and other predators will investigate the false chamber through the dummy entry and, finding it empty, leave eggs and chicks safe in their concealed compartment above it. After feeding its young, the parent here peers cautiously from the tube before flying out to land on the lower entry and push the tube back into place with the top of its head. Sticky spiderwebs holds the entrance shut until the parent returns again. LAST IN A SERIES OF FOUR PICTURES, see #50041, # 50042, and #50043. |
