A few families have a small number of eggs in the clutches, like gulls or cormorants. Others, like the petrels and some of the auks, will lay a single egg per breeding attempt. The investment placed in each clutch bur seabirds is so great that only one breeding attempt can be seen to completion each year.

According to Couzens, after laying the eggs, females sometimes immediately abandon their first mate and pair up with another male. How efficient. How surprising.
