Trapline repeated most times by each bird during Experiments 1 in Phase 1 and 2 of each experiment (E1P1, E1P2)

Bird	E1P1	p value	E1P2	p value
1	1-2-3 (6)	.002	2-3-4 (7)	.001
2	1-2-3 (6)	.019	1-5-4 (7)	.005
3	5-4-3-2-1 (4)	.16*	1-5-4 (11)	.000
4	1-5-3 (3)	.12*	1-2-3 (4)	.05
5	5-1-2 (3)	.21*	5-1-2 (6)	.007
6	5-4-3 (7)	.003	5-4-3 (9)	.003
7	1-2-3-4-5 (5)	.03	1-5-4-3-2 (7)	.005
8	3-4-5-1-2 (7)	.002	2-1-5 (7)	.005
9	4-5 (4)	.062*	1-2-3 (6)	.007

Note. The preferred sequence is listed by the arbitrary numbers designated a priori by the experimenter where “1–2” indicates the bird visiting Flower 1 followed by Flower 2. The number of times that exact sequence was repeated is in the brackets next to the sequence. The asterisk indicates the non-significant result (p > .05) and 0.00 indicates p < .01 calculated by binomial tests.
