Shape from shading in starlings.

Shape from shading in starlings. - 64 p.

Birds behave as if they quickly and accurately perceive an object-filled visual world. Besides pigeons, however, there is a large gap in our knowledge about the mechanisms of object recognition in avian visual systems. The pattern of shading reflected from object surfaces is one important optical feature providing fundamental information about shape and surface orientation. To better understand how surface and object shading is processed by a passerine species, five starlings were tested with differentially illuminated convex and concave curved surfaces in five experiments using a simultaneous visual discrimination procedure. We found that starlings rapidly learned this type of visual discrimination in a manner suggesting that the starlings perceived these illuminated surfaces as three-dimensional surfaces containing curved shapes. The patterns of these results were highly similar to those established from pigeons tested with identical stimuli, indicating that the relative shading is a highly salient feature for shape processing in birds.
