Joint flight bouts but short-term association in migrating Eurasian Curlews Numenius arquata
International audience CapsuleMigration associations by Eurasian Curlews Numenius arquata are temporary and last for single flight bouts between stopover sites.AimsMigrant shorebirds are known to initiate migration communally, with groups of birds departing simultaneously from wintering or post-bree...
