neutral  Muriel Vasconcellos: There were no hits for "aerial pectoral behavior" **in quotes** - from the link, it appears that you didn't use quote marks in your search, which captures exact matches.

  -> This is my suggestion. I think you should post your own answer and I don't really see why I have to copy everything from the web. There are plenty of matches for aerial behaviour.
