I'm curious if this adaptation in birds came from the electromagnetic sensory receptors shared by other archosaurs (I.e. crocodilians) or was convergently adapted utilizing other pathways (visual/tactile). Either way, the atmospheric impact of insects is a fascinating subject. Shame we are waging unmitigated war on them.
