Once again, you've unfortunately copied a headline from a know-nothing journalist who wants to impress people. Alvarezsaurids don't really look like fightless birds (to me anyway).. cool story though otherwise, I believe these are the first Alvarezsaurid eggs found, and this is one of the largest ones yet found.

Hehe, I copy the title every time from the news article.

You should try to give them more accurate titles. Most of the titles by the places these links come from such as BBC, yahoo etc(bar the proper, sciencey links) have stupid titles that are completely inaccurate and misleading, and just there to grab the attention of the non-palaeontologist.
