Re: Homing Pigeons? Try Homing Crocodiles...

I remember this as well.   It's a far more down to earth idea than birds 
seeing magnetic fields.

But - now, I can't resist.   Particularly in light of your poem - though 
maybe it was meant tongue in cheek.

Do you suppose that ancient druids had magneto-sensory apparatus in their 
brains, and this is how they could find Earth's energy lines, and knew the 
best places to have ceremonies and erect structures?
