Why do birds lay eggs?

If they dropped them, they d break!

Interesting Fact: The House Finch was originally a bird of the western United States and Mexico. In 1940 a small number of finches were turned loose on Long Island, New York, after failed attempts to sell them as cage birds (“Hollywood finches”). They quickly started breeding and spread across almost all of the eastern United States and southern Canada within the next 50 years. ( http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/House_Finch/lifehistory )

    • That is great. They are a little harder to find around us, so you are lucky. Thank you very much for stopping by and sharing that with us. 🙂

  2. Great post as always. And a story that yet again makes you wonder what the world would be like if man didn’t interfere with local flora and fauna throughout history.
