[In this figure and in Figures 4 and 5, the home direction is indicated by a dashed arrow, true north by a thin line at the top of the circle, and the mean vector by a solid arrow whose length is in- versely proportional to the extent of scatter (the arrow would reach the periphery of the circle if there were no scatter, , if all the birds vanished in exactly the same direction, and thi_- arrow would have 0 length if the vanishing bearings were uniformly scattered around the com- pass). Each symbol on the periphery of the large circle represents the vanishing bearing of one bird.].
