 Thanks Laurie
an interesting paper - though it would (could) not apply to any of the
species (such as the Short-tailed Shearwater) where the adults leave
on migration two weeks ahead of the fledglings.  Species that have to
learn over a five year period would be more vulnerable to extinction I
would think - when numbers get low.
Cheers
