• "Molt occurs in summer" is kind of awkward, maybe add a few more words there

::Changed

• What does mya mean? Should a note be added there to explain it?

::I currently say "likely evolved around 1.15–million years ago (mya)", explaining the acronym. If you think that gets lost too easily, I could just spell out the whole "million years ago" for each mention, but it seems a bit wordy.

::: Ohh, no you're right. I just misread that. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 00:31, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

• "based on specimens brought back from Charles Darwin," wouldn't "by Charles Darwin" make more sense?

::Right you are

• Bird vocalization should be Wikilinked before the second paragraph since it is mentioned in the sentence "slower chatter call."

::Done-zo

• "Females often spend long times away from the nest, which enables females to lay their eggs in the nests of others." Females mentioned twice, could the second time be changed to "them"?

::I've reworded it a little more to clarify the meaning

• Can you please make the dates consistent in the references (ie. Reference #1 says "26 November 2013" but others say "2020-04-14.")

::I have gone through and cleaned the dates, and the sources in general

::{{U|CaptainEek}} Minor changes needed but otherwise a very well written article. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:55, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
