Most Acorn Woodpeckers are cooperative breeders and live in family groups of up to a dozen or more individuals. Within a group, 1–7 male co-breeders compete for matings with 1–3 joint-nesting females who lay their eggs in the same nest cavity. This is their range map courtesy of Nature Serve.

In addition to having a communal nesting strategy, anis also spend a significant amount of time allopreening, huddling together, and sunning themselves together on exposed branches. Smooth-billed Anis were relative newcomers as breeders to Florida, having only begun nesting since the 1930s. Diet is composed mostly of large insects.

The vast majority of the 10,000+ living species of birds are passerines, and the vast majority of those have a similar system of breeding: Mom and dad bird make a nest and share parental responsibilities roughly equally, if not identically. It turns out that the two strategies may be related.

About half of all breeding Wandering Albatross nest on the Prince Edward Islands. Well, cats are just as successful breeders as mice and soon there were thousands of cats that sought out prey bigger than mice and began to wipe out the native seabird population. Which makes it a haven for seabirds….and and seabirders.
