  • Evidence for Perceptual Neglect of Environmental Features in Hippocampal-Lesioned Pigeons During Homing
    Erschienen in: European Journal of Neuroscience ; 40 (2014), 7. - S. 3102-3110 Evidence for perceptual neglect of environmental features in hippocampal-lesioned pigeons during homing Anna Gagliardo,1 Enrica Pollonara,1 Vincent J.

However, in birds, the hippocampus appears to be more specifically involved in spatial processes. The maturing of GPS-tracking technology has enabled a revolution in navigation research, including the expanded possibility of studying brain mechanisms that guide navigation in the field. By GPS-tracking homing pigeons released from distant, unfamiliar sites prior to and after hippocampal lesion, we observed, as has been reported previously, impaired navigational performance post-lesion over the familiar/memorized space near the home loft, where topographic features constitute an important source of navigational information. The GPS-tracking revealed that many of the lost pigeons, when lesioned, approached the home area, but nevertheless failed to locate their loft. Unexpectedly, when they were hippocampal-lesioned, the pigeons showed a notable change in their behaviour when navigating over the unfamiliar space distant from home; they actually flew straighter homeward-directed paths than they did pre-lesion.

Old books, periodicals, stamps, artwork, figurines, trading cards, cigar bands, old timers, plates, cups, vases, medallions, trophies, diplomas, ribbons and my passion is collecting old bands. I welcome help with old AU, IF, USA and CU bands for my collection. I consider any band 2017 and older, no matter if plastic or aluminum. I really like the old aluminum bands from clubs that have the city embossed into them. Glad to save any part of pigeon history that you may consider discarding. Glad to send you postage money rather than throwing away old bands or other items. Thank you very much for helping.

A preliminary study on the influence of the physical condition of racing pigeons on their flight performance in a varying environment. Author Lizanne Jeninga (student number: 930520-399-120) In the context of my master thesis, part of the study Forest and Nature Conservation. Supervisors Fred de Boer & Kevin Matson Wageningen University & Research Resource Ecology Group Droevendaalsesteeg 3a, 6708 PB Wageningen Contact person NPO Leo van der Waart Wageningen, 14 February 2018 Preface and acknowledgements Various studies have addressed the navigational abilities of pigeons during their flight and how they form habitual routes. However, in contrast, few is known about the factors influencing the flight performance of a pigeon during a race; for instance, is the habitual route influenceable? This research report is the result of a study that is performed in context of a master thesis at the Wageningen University and Research in cooperation with the Dutch Racing Pigeon Fanciers Organisation (NPO) and deals with the effects of the physiological traits of pigeons on the flight performance and how this is related to the environmental circumstances they encounter along the route to home. The field study and this research report are established by the help of a lot of people. I want to thank everyone who has contributed.

  • Neural Processing of Magnetic Intensity Cues by Lesioned Homing Pigeons (Columba Livia) in a Magnetic Conditioning Paradigm
    NEURAL PROCESSING OF MAGNETIC INTENSITY CUES BY LESIONED HOMING PIGEONS (COLUMBA LIVIA) IN A MAGNETIC CONDITIONING PARADIGM Merissa L. Acerbi A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2017 Committee: Verner P. Bingman, Advisor Anne K. Gordon William H. O'Brien ii ABSTRACT Dr. Verner P. Bingman, Advisor The ability to orient in an environment has been shown for centuries to be an important behavior in reproduction and survival. Many scientists agree the avian hippocampal formation (HF) is a brain structure involved in learning and memory tasks. Specifically, one type of learning and memory task, known as true navigation, defined as an animal’s ability to return home even when navigating in a novel environment. Previous research has shown one way birds are able to successfully complete true navigation is via the earth’s magnetic field. The question of what information is gathered with this geomagnetic sensitivity and where in the brain it is stored has remained unanswered. Currently, scientists theorize there are a number of avian species to use information about magnetic inclination via transduction by way of the Wulst area of the forebrain. However, few scientists have explored the role of magnetic intensity and what brain area(s) may be involved in order to successfully navigate. The current study illustrates the role of the HF as well as the Wulst during a novel magnetic conditioning paradigm where homing pigeons (Columba livia) experienced two different currents in magnetic intensity. Pigeons (N = 8) were trained, tested preoperatively and underwent one of two previously assigned experimental lesion surgeries (an electrolytic HF lesion, N = 4 or an aspirated Wulst lesion, N = 4).

  • 15005 Unsung Heros
    Unsung Heroes of WW1 Nicole Kelley Junior Division Individual Exhibit Project- 465 words Process Paper- 426 words The topic I chose was communication through pigeons in World War One. I chose this topic because this topic seemed remarkably interesting. I knew it would make me want to learn even more about it. The topic I chose relates to the annual theme “Communication; The Key to Understanding” because carrier pigeons delivered messages between commanders and troops on the front lines the pigeons were especially useful tools of communication during WW1 when the telephone and the telegraph were still unreliable new technologies. How I conducted my research was by learning more about my topic. I did this by first finding good reliable resources that provided me with information on my topic. These resources consisted of books websites and newspaper articles. My research would also depend on what presentation category I would decide to use. The presentation category I chose was an exhibit board. I chose this presentation because I was more familiar with how it worked. I knew I would do better with the exhibit board because I had done a board before and it was more comfortable for me. The presentation category I chose affected my research because I knew that there was a limit on how many words I could use on my board. I had to make sure that I found enough words to explain my topic, and I had to make sure that the that I used did not exceed the word limit. I believe that homing pigeons where a crucial element for helping America and their allies to defeat Germany and win the war.

    Special Issue - 2020 International Journal of Engineering Research & Technology (IJERT) ISSN: 2278-0181 IETE – 2020 Conference Proceedings Homing Pigeon Classification Based on Wing Pattern using Image Processing Prakhyath N Raj Rajesh Nayak M G Raghavendra R Dept f ECE, Dept f ECE, Dept f ECE, MIT Mysore, Karnataka, India MIT Mysore, Karnataka, India MIT Mysore, Karnataka, India Shashank Patel B A Lethan M N Dept f ECE, Assistant professor, Dept f ECE, MIT Mysore, Karnataka, India MIT Mysore, Karnataka, India Abstract— This project gives a brief solution to a real time based problem statement stated by one of these clubs called the problem stated by the fanciers of the Karnataka Racing Pigeon KARNATAKA RACING PIGEON SOCIETY. The Society (krps.co) which is a state government recognized body. problem statement is being discussed in the further sub The problem statement was that there were two categories of chapters. As soon as the young birds are born they will be homing pigeons (Lon and short distance flying birds) which given a ring to be worn for the legs of the young pigeons for were difficult for the fanciers to differentiate. Since this problem there arose still more like the diet were not maintained properly identification purpose. since both the genre have different diet plan. The performance in the race was degraded due to wrong basketing. In order to II. LITERATURE REVIEW bring in a solution choosing wing pattern was appropriate [1] AUTOMATIC FRUITS AND VEGETABLES CLASSIFICATION because any flying thing should have a greater lift against the FROM IMAGES by Anderson Rochaa, Daniel C.
