UPDATE: Due to the cowbird chick dying the nest was raided by the cowbird mother. 5/6 eggs were stolen and then the nest was abandoned. An unfortunate end to this nest but very interesting to see nature play out. Check out the video here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eqVrmqemgpCcn5M.html

It is instinct, when chicks sense movement or parents nearby the open their beaks. Maybe it 'tried' also for the mother bird to get out the food stuck. Birds do that often if the food is too big or too much. Poor chick.

Baby birds have the irresistible urge to gape even if they are not hungry. Had to raise 3 baby mockingbirds whose mom was killed last year and nest was destroyed. I accidentally killed one from overfeeding due to thinking it was still hungry because it was constantly gaping. Came back to check in them and one was dead with food coming out of its mouth. Lesson was learned. Other two chicks survived and flew.

I do the the exact same mostly when I'm hungry, I eat food quickly and don't chew my food thoroughly.

This is a House finch nest. House finches eat almost exclusively seeds and other vegetable matter, even feeding their young the same. The baby cowbird would not have done well regardless, because cowbirds need more insects in their diet. Shame that the eggs of the House finch had to suffer because of a baby Cowbird who probably would have died anyway.

At first I thought this was a rare case of a chick hatching first and being over-fed by both parents since there was an abundance of food, but then I read the description and saw it was a cowbird chick that hatched and I am far less sorry that it died, as it would have crowded out all the other chicks to claim all the food and let the rest die. Not quite as brutal as a cuckoo chick, but almost. In a way it was almost karmic, but no. It's just nature.

That was a parasitic bird anyways... it would have killed the other chick's... kinda satisfying to watch really...

Dear everyday cinematic birds, Cowbirds Do Not Make Nests. The adult birds at the nest are not Cowbirds. Cowbirds are black with iridescent brown heads. On the longer video, Mama Cowbird shows up and removes one egg, then the next day pokes a hole in the remaining egg and flies off with the other.

Someone call a social worker! 😠

A cowbird chick would die in a House Finch nest regardless. House Finches eat plant material almost exclusively, and the cowbird chick needs insects.

I'm in the U.K and stop putting peanuts out for wild birds in spring as chicks are at risk of choking.I also soak dried mealworms before they go out which helps.

Momma still begs for food like a fledgling. Same twitchy wings and all.

Poor mom she didn’t know how to feed a bird she gave up on raising a child when the bird died

Too much foods for baby bird being the only one hatched

Good. Delicious irony that the parasite was fed to death :)

This is like that scene in Mathilda where that fat kid was forced to eat all that chocolate cake

That's what I call irony. These birds have evolved to call for more food from their dupes and it ended up killing it.

The bird wasn't over fed. It was given and insect too large for it to swallow. It chocked to death.
