I m a seaman I saw birds staying on the ship for 10 -15 days while sailing and they eat fish at day keep flying around and sleep on deck at night. And we sailed around 300Nm a day so that's how they napped
I used do swimming training for the State Championships early in the morning like 4 am before school. Sometimes I was so tired I used to have a quick micro nap while swimming just to relieve the tiredness. It seemed to help.
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.
I thank you so much for this amazing research. 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. 🧐👌
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"
Birds also use the position of the sun during the day and the stars at night to navigate. Some species can even adjust their navigation based on the Earth's rotation and seasonal changes.
While being sleep deprived during the crucible (Marines know what that is), I once fell asleep while hiking in formation. And when I woke up, I was still hiking lol. So it is possible
I once slept driving on the highway for a stretch of about 30km & was horrified waking up dreaming I was driving when I actually doing for real. I pulled over one side of the highway gasping in shock to take in what had just happened. Can you please also do a topic of we humans enter this autopilot mode...
I once fell asleep during class and was dreaming that I was listening to the discussion. When I woke up I still remembered the topic. I wish I could do it on command.
And me,,, I slept while I was driving my motorcycle in a long distance journey 7 to 8 dogs got together and they barked at once at me Then I became awake that I was sleeping
God says in the Qur'an that "Do they not see the birds above them with wings outspread and [sometimes] folded in? None holds them [aloft] except the Most Merciful. Indeed He is, of all things, Seeing.''
You failed to mention the fact that the reason birds fly in the pattern they do is primarily due to the fact that they’re sleeping, one eye open watching the bird ahead and just to the side of them
given brain hemispheres control opposite side of body, how does a sleeping hemisphere coordinate with a non sleeping hemisphere to synch body movements
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?
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.
More than a few coworkers show long periods of decreased activity but they perk up near lunch and quitting time. Are any small desk-mounted REM trackers available?
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.
Do they spend energy to stay afloat against gravity?. No. That is the tricky thing only the birds know!. Perhaps, a king named Ravana, in the 'mythical land' of Lanka, also knew. And he had airfields. One such place still exist with the original name!. And these planes are depicted inside the chambers of pyramids.
Politicians do this while in Parliament: half their brain sleeps.
BJP!
Which leaves zero brain awake.
And they forget to bring the other half.
😂😂😂
The other half continues to lie cheat and steal

It's possible to sleep while running too.
I also fell asleep during walking for about 2~3 minuts, and I slept dosens of times while standing.
Will you believe I fell a sleep for few seconds while riding a motorbike.
i was flying a f22 raptor and i fell asleep for only like a second, two at most. but when i woke up i was still on my couch and the tv was still on.
@@NoneofyourBusiness-gy9yw 😆😆🤣
Just what I wanted. Thank you very much for your well made infographic animation and good narration. I am happy.😊❤
Excellent video & worth watching to end.
Glad you enjoyed it
they usually have this button on their chest called ap-1 and ap-2 ,
when pressed they go automatically follow the pre-flight plan programme .
Birds are amazing ❤
This was awesome! 💤🐦🧠
We thought so too!
Science is awesome.
Super awesome vid! So succinct, and full of information. Great work!
Yay! Was just wondering about this the other day. 👍
This is awesome and useful content thank you
Funny and educational, great combo?👊🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice information.. Neatly explained with amazing graphics. Thanks. 👍
Most welcome 😊

Love the animation!,, and funny too
I had no idea birds that small could migrate that far

It seems you missed the forest for the trees.
@@MattH-wg7ou The forest here is that the whole video looks like it was created with AI and untouched by human hands

Fascinating.😮
It would be nice to see actual vid or pictures of the birds.
I once slept driving on the highway for a stretch of about 30km & was horrified waking up dreaming I was driving when I actually doing for real.

Can you please also do a topic of we humans enter this autopilot mode...
I too have done this. Snap out of it and realize I have no memory of the last half hours drive.
I once fell asleep during class and was dreaming that I was listening to the discussion. When I woke up I still remembered the topic. I wish I could do it on command.
Very interesting
Hey steve dont forget to turn on auto pilot when flying sleeping.
I have slept while cycling. Not a great thing to do but it has happened during endurance rides.
And me,,, I slept while I was driving my motorcycle in a long distance journey
7 to 8 dogs got together and they barked at once at me
Then I became awake that I was sleeping
my sister asked me this question some days ago
I said I need to know more about this

They use their field bed at the new area!!laughter!!

We can't sleep while walking, but it is easy to sleep while driving, and a few of us can drive while sleeping.
Humans also do same when they walk in sleep
Muscles are moving but one side of brain in sleep
Dog sled dogs sleep during runs.
You failed to mention the fact that the reason birds fly in the pattern they do is primarily due to the fact that they’re sleeping, one eye open watching the bird ahead and just to the side of them
Makes you wonder why we need sleep at all ..
given brain hemispheres control opposite side of body, how does a sleeping hemisphere coordinate with a non sleeping hemisphere to synch body movements
When you see ducks and geese on the water you see them do this all the time.
Yes but an albatross can fly for two years over the ocean without touching ground, so how do they sleep.
UA-cam algorithm been crazy

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?
I have on question: if one hemisphere is asleep, how is the wing controlled by that hemisphere being flapped?
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.

History is full of reports by soldiers who claim to have slept during forced marches.
Your frigate birds migrate asleep
I wish we can fly like birds not with planes 😮
Albatross is the best
They just turn on auto pilot
I always thought they went on auto pilot
autopilot on 😂
Did the family guy animators animate this vid?
More than a few coworkers show long periods of decreased activity but they perk up near lunch and quitting time.
Are any small desk-mounted REM trackers available?
Air B&B ?
Wont the dolphin drown?

They sleep by closing their eyes😂
Birds can roam the entire world without Visa. Why not same for human?

They have good meth dealers
So driving 6 hours to get a good f doesn't seems like a hustle at all 🥲
Even a marathon seems easy compared to migration!
