Brolga's parents built their nest in a shallow wetland. Both brolgas incubated the two big eggs. Brolga was the first to hatch and cut through the shell with the egg tooth on the end of his bill. The other chick was weak and could not break out of the shell . . .
Picture Roo Books tell the life story of birds and other animals of Australia and New Zealand.
