Solution
The correct option is C Crow
The female bird after laying the eggs, sits on the top of them to provide warmth until they hatch. This is known as brooding. Cuckoos do not build their own nests. Rather, they lay eggs in other birds' nests, commonly crows. Hence, crows brood cuckoo’s eggs along with their own.
