Rescued from truncation:

I don't pretend to be able to follow everything in this paper, but I am a bit 
puzzled that the tree 
they present differs in many ways from the "new" views that (for instance) 
falcons are close to Passeriformes.  The authors don't comment on the 
falcon-passerine relationship point at all in the text - can anyone explain 
this to me?
