Amazing Migrations: The Fascinating Journeys of Birds Around the World

Science Kids Birds and Bird Migration V1-0003 Birds migrate along specific flyways, with some following wind patterns while others rely on landmarks. Songbirds like the black pole warbler use tailwinds in spring to reach their breeding grounds quickly, adjusting their path to avoid headwinds in the fall. Waterfowl such as ducks and geese have fixed flyways, guided by landmarks and stopover locations for food and shelter. The Arctic tern undertakes the longest migration, traveling from the Arctic to Antarctica, using gliding techniques to cover the vast distance and following sunlight to navigate their journey.
