Do I know anyone on here who might find it useful to predict hatching dates from birds eggs? Please reach out if you're open to help me develop ovotime.com to include more species, and to expand with more detailed #oology features! #phenology #seabirds #ornithology 🌍🧪
Three eggs in a nest of dried grass surrounded by dry black seaweed. 2 eggs are brown-geeeb with darker rounded splotches, the third is a pale blue-green with brown splatter marks
A nest of dry grass surrounded by green vegetation. In it is a single egg, very small and long with a knobble at one end.
Some interesting nests from yesterday. the first pic is maybe med gull egg-dumping in black-headed gull nest? The second is possibly a fart egg or just oddly deformed. Fart eggs are eggs without yolks, commonly the first egg ever laid by a young bird. #oology
