Response to `Does familiarity with the release site reduce the deflection induced by clock-shifting?'

Abstract

The central issue of the paper by Gagliardo et al. ([2005][1]) is that three factors are relevant in reducing the expected deflection in the initial orientation of clock-shifted pigeons: (1) familiarity with the release site; (2) anosmia and (3) the release site features. However, in their comments
