Article in NAUTILUS Magazine "How Animals see the World" human vs animal vision

Today just an announcement about a very interesting article in NAUTILUS Magazine.  It is by Elizabeth Preston and carries the title: "How Animals See the World - See through the eyes of cats, birds, fish, and snakes".

It is about the different types of vision, our human tetrachromatic one compared to some other animals, made nicely visible using interactive image sliders.

It has my pictures in it of the following flowers:
- Rudbeckia fulgida
 

- Geranium oxonianum

*** I dedicate this to my mom, Helga Schmitt, who just today celebrates her 80th birthday. Without her love and support all this would not be here ***

Stay tuned, more will follow on that fascinating subject...
