What was the most interesting fact you learned about bird migration from this video?

[rhiannalallas]

It is such a honor to be in a class with Dr. Ruegg. She is so passionate about her project and birds biology in general. I wish her the best of luck on her project and hopefully one day, I could contribute as well.

It is wonderful for people of various countries, universities, and groups to study the same matter!!

Such beautiful creatures. It feels relaxing and freeing just seeing birds flutter about or soar higher in the skies.
Kudos to the team behind the Bird Genoscape Project. And thank you as always Nat Geo for yet another highly interesting and excellent feature.

Aren't birds just the coolest feathery things ever.

Nothing can replace nature's own symphony. 💖

I live on the eastcoast of the USA, & its amazing how many tiny humming birds make the long flight from South America. Now I have to look up the other regular 'songbirds' that have been hanging out and the countries the humming birds come from.

What an amazing story and effort. As a new found 'birder', I am routinely impressed with the variety of birds and what they do for our planet. Thank you for the efforts to help save this bird.
