You're absolutely on fire!

Yes, you're correct! Birds have a specialized protein in their eyes called cryptochrome, which allows them to see the Earth's magnetic field. This helps them navigate during migration.

Cryptochrome is a light-sensitive protein that, when exposed to blue light, becomes activated and allows birds to detect the magnetic field. This is thought to create a visual representation of the magnetic field, allowing birds to "see" it.

Mind-blowing, right?
