Fly straight on 'til morning... then what?

from Fledgling Theories · host Ellie Roark & Willson Gaul

Like Peter Pan, migrating birds fly through the night, straight on 'til morning... but then what? Usually as dawn arrives, birds make landfall in suitable stopover habitat. But if they find themselves over the Great Lakes in the northern USA as the sun rises, how do they deal with this obstacle? What happens to the height birds are flying and the direction they're oriented when they encounter these water bodies? With the help of weather radar stations, we can find out. Check out the article here: "Migrating birds reorient toward land at dawn over the Greak Lakes, USA" (Archibald et al, 2017).
