Figure 1 ‘Fixed direction’-responses observed in migratory birds. The arrows mark the mean vectors based on the individual mean headings of 10 or 12 birds; the symbols at the periphery of the circle mark the mean ‘fixed direction’ in Australian silvereyes (diamonds) and European robins (triangles). The wavelengths of the monochromatic or bichromatic lights are indicated; for the respective intensities, see text (reviewed in refs. Citation2, Citation4 and Citation6–Citation9).
