On vision in birds: coordination of head-bobbing and gait stabilises vertical head position in quail
INTRODUCTION: Head-bobbing in birds is a conspicuous behaviour related to vision comprising a hold phase and a thrust phase. The timing of these phases has been shown in many birds, including quail, to be coordinated with footfall during locomotion. We were interested in the biomechanics behind this...
