Two female American Black Ducks (Anas rubripes) were initially observed during June 1982 with 20 Class Ib or 18-22 Class Ia-b ducklings in two wetlands in Hancock County, Cherryfield, Maine. Fifteen of 20 ducklings (75%) in one brood and 16 of 18-22 ducklings (72-89%) in the other brood survived to fledge. These large broods probably resulted from post-hatch brood amalgamation.

Least Sandpipers (Calidris minutila) were studied on the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia, over five breeding seasons. Brood amalgamation and care of foreign chicks occur regularly, though at low incidence, among the approximately 90 breeding pairs there. Such behavior is probably important to chick survival and has little impact on adult fitness. Brood amalgamation and alloparental care appear to be widespread in calidridine sandpipers.
