Man does not stand alone by A Cressy Marrison

The American scientist, A Cressy Morrison, Head of the Science Academy   in New York, says in his book "Man Does Not Stand Alone": Birds have the homing instinct. The robin that nested at your door may go south in the autumn, but will come back to his old nest the next spring.

The tiny insects must have microscopic eyes, how perfect we do not know, and the hawks, the eagle and the condor must have telescopic vision. Here...
