Fig. 3

Correlation of track angle and line-of-sight angle. Each figure panel plots a two-dimensional histogram of track angleγ against line-of-sight angle λ for all sample points over all flights: a no delay between γ(t) and λ(t);b track angle γ lagged by τ = 0.16 s delay, representing the median value of the delay at which the correlation between γ(t + τ) andλ(t) was maximised for each flight. The linear association in b indicates that the attack trajectories of the hawks approximated a delayed pure pursuit course
