This gives me the perfect chance to share a fun trivia fact! One of the best ways to link migration patterns were arrows carried by the birds from one area to another. As always, there’s a word for it in German - arrow stork. Even better is that the original specimen is one posted on this map; the white stork!

Really enjoy the lengths birds will go to just to avoid the UK.

Now I wonder whether some of the different species that share the same route ever migrate together.
