For his new book "What's It Like To Be a Bird", David Allen Sibley’ did a 35-minute bird talk with beautiful images he created just for Pittsburgh Arts & Lectures.
(He answers cool questions like: “Why do birbs take baths?”)

Eagles have FOUR areas of detail within their vision. FOUR.. THey could read FOUR books at once if they wanted to..
Human's only have ONE.
ONE!!!
(Also some birds have 360 degree of vision AT ALL TIMES along the horizon and 180 degrees above their heads.
Constant air and constant vision of everything...)
