| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to investigate visuomotor control of head-reaching in crows. We conducted three studies. (1)We tried to develop a new technique to measure the eye movement reconstructed by high-speed video images. We found some eye movement during pecking but failed to measure precisely. (2) We examined the flexibility to control pecking to the bill extension by a resin-made artificial bill comparatively in crows and pigeons. Crows showed rapid adjustment pecking immediately after bill extension, but pigeons did not. (3) We investigated the dependence between on-going and preceding head-movement during pecking by testing the effects of prism-shifted vison comparatively in crows and pigeons. In crows, dependence of movement trajectory was found only between proximate segments of the time course of pecking movement, but was found among almost all of the time courses throughout the pecking movement in pigeons. These results suggest online visual feedback in crow pecking.
