    Our heart beats and lungs breathe while sleeping so perhaps some aspects of flying are autonomic and separate from the need for REM or being alert... During human sleep our muscles are suppressed so we dont move while dreaming. Perhaps birds do not have or need that suppression, especially since there is less danger flying in the sky than navigating ground terrain without consciousness.

    This video makes several assertions about frigate birds that make the accuracy of the whole suspect. 1) The text below the title banner asserts frigate birds are "migratory" and the narration at 0:12 states that male frigate birds fly vast distanced to find "a hospitable breeding ground." Wikipedia says "Genetic testing seems to indicate that the species has fidelity to their site of hatching despite their high mobility." That is to say frigate birds tend to raise their broods near to the place they themselves were reared. 2) The animation of frigate birds shows them flapping their wings to fly. Wikipedia says "Highly adept, they use their forked tails for steering during flight and make strong deep wing-beats,[45] though not suited to flying by sustained flapping." and "[They] soar continuously and only rarely flap their wings." and "frigatebirds are thermal soarers, using thermals to glide"

  • @Opuscus

    Wait a minute! 200 days of flight? You mean this happens during migration ONE WAY. So let's say when the bird gets to its destination destination and immediately turns back that would be 400 days. Why bother to migrate?
    Now, if it is not a migration then why a silly bird would fly for 200 days? And by the way, how do they eat during those 200 long days?

    At least to me, this is the final nail in the coffin for any evolutionary process.
    This had to have been designed into their brains.
    To shut off one side of the brain, and one eye at a time, while still flapping 2 wings and maintaining direction blows my mind. A human can't eyeball a cell phone and drive at the same time, nor even shift a gear shift or change a radio station on a car, without affecting the rest of the body. Very well done my friend. 🧐👌

    • @kentalanlee
      @kentalanlee 4 месяца назад +1

      In vetebrates, the default neuronal movement impulse is bilaterally symmetrical. Think snakes wiggling or fish swimming. This default mechanism, is controlled/overridden via bridging nerves between the two hemispheres, in a structure called the corpus callosum in humans. BIrds don't have a corpus callosum. The only interhemispheric connections they have is the anterior commissure and a smaller hippocampal commissure. Thus, the default bilaterally symmetrical movement patterns will dominate in birds, except in very specific circumstances. There are a lot of default vertebrate movements like this, that occur below conscious control, even in humans.

    The animation is misleading for the frigate bird. They barely expend energy and ride updrafts to 30k feet. Gliding down from that height takes virtually no effort and would take hours. They are not flapping constantly like your video portrays. Just like the minimal effort the frigate bird expends during flight, editing the video to accurately depict how animals actually behave would require minimal effort. Please do a better job of animating your content.
