Hello,

your paper is a very interesting contribution on the behavioural flexibility of long-distance migrants!

I suggest you to have also a look at this paper we published in the 2011

Mellone U., López- López P., Limiñana R., Urios V. 2011. Weather conditions promote route flexibility
during open ocean crossing in a long-distance migratory raptor. International Journal of Biometeorology 55: 463–468

Best wishes for your ongoing research,

Ugo Mellone
