Article Synopsis
- External factors, particularly geography and weather, have a significant impact on the migration patterns of lesser kestrels, affecting daily travel times and flight speeds.
- The study utilized GPS tracking on 70 lesser kestrels to analyze how external (wind, geography) and internal (sex) factors influence variations in their migration behavior.
- Findings revealed that geography and tailwinds primarily dictate travel schedules, with wind accounting for most seasonal differences, indicating that external factors are more crucial than internal ones in shaping migratory behavior.
