This is the secret of the orientation of a traveling pigeon

Traveling pigeons have long served as long-distance secret messenger senders. Traveling pigeons were later replaced by other messaging tools, such as telex, telegram, and in the new era of telephone and internet. Pigeons have been sending messages, mostly messages written over very long distances, from one state to another.

But how is it possible for a bird to know the correct orientation and find the address?

The dove can fly without resting about 1000 km. It is not programmed like today's GPS through classic orientation. In whatever country you leave a pigeon it will still be reoriented to find the home, or just its owner.

The main orientation of a pigeon is the sun, while its orientation becomes more difficult when there is no sun.

Another important orientation is the magnetic fields. If you put a dove in a small iron and wooden lodge, the orientation will be easier when in the wooden house. It is assumed, according to some studies of American scientists, that the brain of a pigeon contains micromagnetic nerve fibers. Analyzes of these compounds have found that these micro magnetic fibers are made of iron, zinc, lead and copper.

Those who are passionate about pigeon racing should know that pigeons are often hampered by bad weather to find the desired orientation. Solar radiation is also an important factor in disorienting pigeons.

Why is family important?

While we are young, the family is the cornerstone of our basic needs: it is our first information to get to know the world. The family teaches us to think about ourselves and others. Also, our emotional foundations depend on how parents treat us, and what messages we receive from their behavior. Children are convinced that everything parents say is true and true. When the parent makes a judgment about the child's core value, that thought becomes a fact in the child's consciousness. If parents tell their children that they are good, valuable, and loving, then they will form positive and confident thoughts. They will treat others well, because they will find that they deserve it. However, if parents' behavior is negative towards their children considering them worthless, then those children will harmonize their lives with such negative thoughts. The negative beliefs that children create about themselves continue to persist into adulthood. For example, these negative self-t...

Why 'Wherefore Art Thou Romeo' Mean?

O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Because of the base word where , modern ears often interpret this line as asking the question: “Where are you, Romeo?” In fact, it’s asking, “Why are you Romeo?” The following line gives us a clue: Deny thy father and refuse thy name. Since what kept the lovers apart was their feuding families, they could be together without impediments if he had a different name. Why was he Romeo? (Indeed, a few lines later, Juliet asks, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose/By any other name would smell as sweet.”) The fact is, adding prepositions to where was an unusually productive way to make words in English. In these compounds, where meant “what” or “which,” so that, for example, whereon meant “on what” and wherein meant “in what”—and wherefore meant “for what,” or “why.” Shakespeare used it in other plays as well: But wherefore do you droop? why look you sad? —Shakespeare, King John, Act 5, Scene 1 Wherefore was I born? ...
