    ①You may often hear some myths (传言) about animals. For example, one dog year equals (等于) about seven human years, chameleons (变色龙) change color to match their environment … Today, let's talk about birds. It is said that if you touch a baby bird, the parents will completely abandon (抛弃) it. Do you really believe it?

    ②In fact, most birds have a very poor sense of smell so in most cases they are unable to notice the smell of humans on baby birds. Not only that, but most types of birds aren't so quick to abandon their young when they sense danger. Some types will even do their best to protect their young when they are in danger.

    ③Indeed, in very few known cases, parent birds sometimes abandoned their nests (鸟巢) from something touching their young, just because they noticed it by sight, not smell. When this happens, the parent birds usually won't care, other than (只会) to be a little more careful than normal. Sometimes, they may temporarily (暂时地) abandon the nest in order to better watch whatever disturbed (扰乱) their nest comes back.

    ④What's more, in most cases, even if the nest is destroyed by wind or something to that effect (效果), you could create a new one and put all the baby birds back in it, and when the parents came back, they wouldn't care that their baby birds were in a different nest, so long as you put the new nest near where the old one was so they can find it.
