Lead

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

Taxonomy and systematics

 * 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

Vocalizations

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

Breeding and nesting

 * "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
