Hunting Birds with Keen Eyesight
Hunting birds have keen eyes that enable them to make perfect dis-
tance adjustments while they attack their prey. In addition their large eyes
contain more vision cells, which means better sight. There are more than one
million vision cells in the eye of a hunting bird.
Eagles that fly at thousands of meters high have such sharp eyes that
they can scan the earth perfectly at that distance. Just as war planes detect
their targets from thousands of
meters away, so do eagles spot
their prey, perceiving the slightest
colour shift or the slightest move-
ment on the earth. The eagle's eye
has an angle of vision of three hun-
dred degrees and it can magnify a
given image around six to eight
times. Eagles can scan an area of
30,000 hectares while flying 4,500
meters above it. They can easily
distinguish a rabbit hidden among
grasses from an altitude of 1,500 meters. It is evident that this extraordinary
eye structure of the eagle is specially created for this creature.
The Thread of the Spider
The spider named Dinopis has a great skill for hunting. Rather than
weaving a static web and waiting for its prey, it weaves a small yet highly
unusual web that it throws on its prey. Afterwards, it tightly wraps up its
prey with this web. The entrapped insect can do nothing to extricate itself.
The web is so perfectly constructed that the insect gets even more entangled
as it gets more alarmed. In order to store its food, the spider wraps the prey
with extra strands, almost as if it were packaging it.
How does this spider make a web so excellent in its mechanical and
chemical structure? It is impossible for the spider to have acquired such a
skill by coincidence as is claimed by evolutionists. The spider is devoid of
faculties such as learning and memorising and does not have even a brain to
perform these things. Obviously, this skill is bestowed on the spider by its
creator, Allah, Who is Exalted in Power.
