Still Waters Posted September 3, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 3, 2013 For most animals, scent is the instant messenger of choice for quickly exchanging personal profiles. Scientists, however, have long dismissed birds as odor-eschewing Luddites that don't take advantage of scent-based communications. In a first-of-its-kind study, however, a Michigan State University researcher has demonstrated that birds do indeed communicate via scents, and that odor reliably predicts their reproductive success. http://www.scienceda...t Science News) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
