A sun compass is a navigational tool used by certain animals to orient themselves and find their way during migration or foraging. Animals that use a sun compass can detect the position of the sun in the sky and use it to determine their direction, much like humans can use a traditional compass for navigation. The mechanism by which animals utilize a sun compass typically involves their ability to perceive the sun's angle and position throughout the day, which changes due to the Earth's rotation.
