EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Dorling Kindersley captures a remarkable moment in the natural world. From an aerial perspective, we witness the incredible scene of a just-hatched cuckoo chick exerting its dominance over a dunnock's egg, pushing it out of the nest. The image showcases the intricate dynamics of animal behavior and highlights themes of growth and development. The common cuckoo, known scientifically as Cuculus canorus, is notorious for its brood parasitism strategy. Instead of building their own nests or caring for their young, they lay their eggs in other birds' nests to be raised by unsuspecting foster parents. This particular illustration provides a unique glimpse into this cunning survival tactic. Against a clean white background, this studio-shot image allows us to focus solely on the fascinating interaction between these two avian species. The delicate details and vibrant colors bring life to the scene while emphasizing the vulnerability and innocence of the just-hatched cuckoo chick. Through this thought-provoking artwork, we are reminded of nature's complexity and adaptability. It serves as a visual testament to both the beauty and harsh realities that exist within our natural world – where even from birth, some creatures must fight for their place in it.
