A Birds Eye View English Listening Exercise

A Birds Eye View English Listening Exercise When speaking English, as in most languages, we typically use directions like up, down, left and right to describe directions. But imagine if you spoke a language that didnt use these directions. Imagine telling someone to raise their northwest hand, or go north down the hallway, and enter the first door on the east. Pigeons know their way around.There are several languages that do rely on a strong sense of direction to speak the language. In this English listening exercise, youll hear a podcast about how pigeons and humans can have an amazing sense of direction, when they pay attention and use their birds eye view.
