Both short and long distance migrants use energy-minimizing migration strategies in North American herring gulls

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have proposed that birds migrating short distances migrate at an overall slower pace, minimizing energy expenditure, while birds migrating long distances minimize time spent on migration to cope with seasonal changes in environmental conditions. METHODS: We evaluated varia...
