Which displacement is observed due to inexperienced magnetic sensing during initial migration?

A)Overshooting the target longitude slightly
B)Erratic but linear flight trajectory forms
C)Consistent, subtle Coriolis-induced rightward drift
D)Localized clustering around geomagnetic anomalies

💡 Explanation

Young migratory birds might cluster near magnetic anomalies because their initial navigation relies on geomagnetic imprinting rather than precise alignment. Therefore, clustering arises near anomalies, rather than showing linear drift; experienced birds compensate.
