Do birds think faster than humans?

953 viewsBiologyOther

It always amazes me how small birds change direction mid-flight and seem to do it frequently, being able to make tons of movements in small urban areas with lots of obstacles.

Same thing with squirrels – they move so fast and seem to be able to make a hundred movements in the time a human could be able to make ten!

So what’s going on here? Do some animals just THINK faster than humans, and not only move faster than them?

From what I understand a big factor is they *see* faster. Our eyes are like a screen playing at lower frames per second than most animals, especially small fast ones.
