Fig. 10. Approach path with irregular velocity changes before the fly's impact at the water surface. Path of falling fly (open circles, calculated projection onto the plane of the water surface) and of responding fish (filled dot indicates the head) sampled every 20 ms. Each sample is shown. Arrangements of panels A-C and the ordinate scale in B and C are as in Fig. 8. Despite speed changes (B), the bearing (C) of the fish's movement is held throughout the approach.
