Abstract

Nest predation is a major cause of avian breeding failure and parent birds adopt various anti-nest predation strategies to increase the survival rate of offspring. Purple sunbird uses snake moults as nest-building material, which could be a tactic to avoid predation of eggs and hatchlings inside the nest.
