Allopreening in birds is associated with parental cooperation over offspring care and stable pair bonds across years by Kenny, Elspeth, Birkhead, Tim R, Green, Jonathan P

“…Individuals of many species form bonds with their breeding partners, yet the mechanisms maintaining these bonds are poorly understood. In birds, allopreening…”
