Clark's Nutcracker (Nucifraga columbiana) - Manning Provincial Park
I was honoured to speak about the impacts Boreal Birds are facing right now at The Manning Park bird blitz. It is always so much fun to bird beautiful E.C. Manning Provincial Park. It is one of the few places in BC where Nutcrackers will come sit on your hand.
The Clark's Nutcracker is one of a select few of corvids that incubate the eggs. In corvids, taking care of the eggs is for the female only. Male Clark's Nutcrackers actually develop a brood patch as the female, and helps to keep the eggs warm while the female goes off for food.
