Subject: If you are not groening your garden then watch sunsets

A sunset may do more than refresh the soul -- it could recalibrate the internal compasses of migrating songbirds, U.S. and German researchers reported on Thursday.
The researchers, who attached radio transmitters to thrushes and then followed them by car at night, said their findings help explain how birds fly across the equator at night without getting lost.
The experiment, published in the journal Science, is one of the first to use free-flying birds instead of captive birds in a laboratory.
