Migratory birds travel hundreds to thousands of miles each year, using celestial navigation to reach their summer and winter homes. Some species, like the arctic tern, fly from pole to pole, while others face treacherous ocean crossings with limited refuge. The migrations are crucial for survival, with birds seeking hospitable climates and food sources. Despite the challenges, many species thrive, with some surviving the journey only to face new dangers once they reach their destinations, where they disperse into family units.
