How does bird vision work?

1.01K views

The pigeons on my kitchen window sill like to watch me. However, when they look at me with one eye, their other eye is looking in the opposite direction. Are they processing two separate images at once? Is it like a sort of peripheral vision where what they see on the other side doesn’t take away from their central focus? I’m mostly curious about what it is like to see as a bird.

pigeons have basically 360° vision. its like having peripherals all the way around you. you can focus on something directly in your line of vision, but still be able to kinda see thinga around you, like when something moves in the corner of your eye.
