Fig 6
Distance between the roost of the juvenile and its father in relation to the distance between the roost of the juvenile and its place of birth.
Shown are raw data (squares) and the fitted line with 95%CrI of a linear-mixed effect model with ‘Distance between the roost of the juvenile and its father’ as dependent variable, ‘distance between the roost of the juvenile and its place of birth’ as explanatory variable and juvenile identity nested in family as random effect. The analysis is based on 542 observations of 23 juveniles from 12 broods in 2005.
