　　In Europe, the cuckoo's call is a welcome sign that summer is on the way．This is the time when the mother cuckoo flies round, looking for a nest(巢)to lay one of her eggs．She chooses a nest belonging to another bird which already has eggs．When the nest is left unnoticed for a minute or two, the cuckoo rushes down, lays an egg and hurries off．In this way, she may lay her eggs in as many as four different nests, not one of which has been built by herself．

　　When a cuckoo egg hatches(孵化), the baby bird is bigger and stronger than the other nestlings．Step by step, it pushes other baby birds and any unhatched eggs out of the nest．In this way, it receives all the food from its foster-parents(養(yǎng)父母)and has a better chance of surviving．
