Mechanics and control of perching flight
<p>Perching is an example of high risk, high reward behaviour executed within tight physical constraints. Despite the high risks posed by collision and stall, perching is performed routinely by most birds. However, surprisingly little is understood about the energetics and control of aerodynam...
