A person or creature that hunts for or collects eggs, especially bird eggs from nests.
From 'egg' + '-er' suffix (one who does something). This occupational term emerged to describe people engaged in egg gathering, a common practice in earlier centuries.
Egg collectors were once so obsessed with gathering rare bird eggs that they nearly caused extinctions; the practice is now heavily regulated or illegal in most countries to protect endangered species.
