Here's why:
* Decomposition is a natural process: All living things are made up of organic matter. When an organism dies, bacteria and fungi begin to break down this organic matter.
* Rate of decomposition: The rate at which decomposition occurs can vary depending on factors like temperature, humidity, and the presence of scavengers. Insectivorous birds, like any bird, will decompose over time.
* Scavengers play a role: Animals like vultures, foxes, and even insects will scavenge the remains of a dead bird, further accelerating decomposition.
So, while an insectivorous bird may be a bit smaller than other birds, the same natural process of decomposition will apply to it.
