Trainer

Majority of birds lack rod cells, which is responsible for night vision, so due to the absence of these cells they cannot see the objects clearly in less or dim light. This is the reason why birds fly back to their nest in the evening.

Retinal is a component of the visual pigments of Rod and cone cells. Rhodopsin, the visual pigment of the Rod cells in the retina, consist of 11-cis retinal specifically bound to the protein opsin. In the dark, retinal of rhodopsin is in 11-cis form. When rhodopsin is exposed to light, 11-cis retinal undergoes a series of photochemical reactions that converts it to all trans retinal and release of all trans retinal and opsin. Birds lack Rod cell. It is responsible for night vision. Absence of Rod cells, they can't see object properly at night. So, Birds fly back to the nest in the evening. read less
