1. bird brains (no pun intended) use 1/3 the glucose mammalian brains do
2. the neurons are packed tighter, are smaller
"the neurons consume less glucose—this could have been expected by differences in the size of their neurons," says Kaya von Eugen of Ruhr University Bochum, Germany. "But the magnitude of difference is so large that the size difference cannot be the only contributing factor"
birds are our cognitive superiors
they have more advanced CPUs
