Sunday, May 27, 2012. Pigeon Navigation (4): Identifying Landmarks. In this last post on pigeon navigation we'll see how we can identify the most important or "information rich" parts of a pigeons flight paths, and then equate these to the landmarks the pigeon uses. Using the idea that a pigeon learns, and then attempts to follow a memorised `habitual route', we saw in the last post. Instead, the generally accepted hypothesis is that a pigeon learns its route by memorising a small number of landmarks.
