| - So we are cousins then, my dear Sir Bustard... - Humpf, I don´t think so, you cuckoo clock trash! |
So a 2014 genetic study shows that bustards are more related to cuckoos and turacos than to cranes and other gruids?! HA HA HA. But sure, it does make sense in some really bizarre way. Come to think of it, the bustard does look like a truly monstrous cuckoo.
The falcons have already been outed as closer to passerines than to other raptors. Sure wonder what other surprises awaits us out there...
