"Took the scenery walk back to get coffee this A.M." #coffee&walks #Siestakey #Morningwalks
Light hits the eye--chemical reactions-- the bird sees --magnetic direction like a compass. They have special proteins in their eyes (called cryptochromes) that detect changes in Earth’s magnetic field. So.. 20/20 vision or compass vision? Take your pick

🧭 #BirdBrains #ScienceTwitter #ArcticTern
Arctic terns migrate 60,000 miles a year--basically Earth’s most committed frequent flyer.

How do they navigate? Not vibes. Not luck.

They see the planet’s magnetic field with proteins in their eyes. Nature built them a head

• Doppler Effect: When a sound source moves relative to you, the pitch changes.
• Approaching = waves bunch up = higher frequency = higher pitch.
• Receding = waves spread out = lower frequency = lower pitch.
Motorcycle drive-by = a textbook Doppler Effect.

✅ Stage 1: As it approaches, the sound waves compress = higher pitch.
✅ Stage 2: At the closest point, the pitch suddenly drops.
✅ Stage 3: As it moves away, waves stretch = lower pitch.

"Dolphins have been high, trained for war, and possibly tried to learn English. We're one conspiracy theory away from finding out they run the ocean. This isn't sci-fi--it's dolphinology. These cute creatures for sure have one Wild résumé." #Ologies www.alieward.com/ologies/delp...
