Incubating Cahow Takes A Break, Reveals Egg | Cornell Lab | Nonsuch Expeditions ? Jan. 17, 2019 https://youtu.be/FHRG6RFAbA4 via cornell lab bird cam
Peer into the nesting burrow of one of the world's rarest seabirds?the Bermuda Petrel or "cahow." Here, the incubating adult makes a rapid exit down the burrow's tunnel before returning to settle over its single egg. The male and female will take turns incubating their egg for multi-day sessions during the 53-55 day incubation period.
Here's our couple ❤️
