Birds use special tools like the sun, stars, and even smells to find their way during migration. Like a tiny pilot with a compass, they travel thousands of miles without getting lost. Some birds even follow roads or rivers as guides on their journey.
Examples
- A small songbird flies nonstop from the United States to South America, using the stars as its guide.
- Geese follow a leader in the sky, flying in a V shape to save energy during long flights.
- A hummingbird uses smells and colors of flowers to find its way across oceans.
