avian pilotage
According to Reuters today, British scientists tracking homing pigeons with
GPS transmitters discovered that the pigeons don't return home by celestial navigation. Instead, they follow roads. Closely. Prof. Tim Guilford: "It is striking to see the pigeons fly straight down the A34 Oxford bypass, and then sharply curve off at the traffic lights before curving off again at the roundabout." |
