Talk on Guillemots by Tim Birkhead

A birds egg has been described as the most perfect thing and this is true in terms of their biology and appearance. I shall describe how eggs work as the perfect external incubation system and then explore the irresistible appeal of birds eggs and the culture of egg collecting, and the way the almost-industrial level of egging conducted by climmers at Bempton in past centuries affected both birds and people.
