Migratory birds do not refer to a single bird. Migratory birds actually refer to those birds that have migratory behavior. Every spring and autumn, migratory birds will travel back and forth to the breeding ground and the cold shelter along a fixed route. In fact, migratory birds can be divided into several kinds, including summer migratory birds, winter migratory birds, floating birds and travelers. Generally, this kind of bird will migrate with the change of seasons, and the direction and distance of migration are relatively fixed.

In fact, in the whole animal kingdom, many birds have the habit of migration. For example, in summer, migratory birds tend to breed in temperate regions with higher latitudes, but in winter, these migratory birds will feed in tropical regions with lower latitudes for the winter. At the end of summer, migratory birds will migrate from their breeding grounds to cold places. When spring comes, these migratory birds will return to their breeding grounds in the north.

In fact, migratory birds will constantly change their residence according to the change of atmospheric temperature. Migratory birds are social birds, and they will migrate on a large scale when the weather gets cold. When to start the migration depends on the actual situation, such as the length of local sunshine, local climate conditions, wind speed and direction. When the large-scale migration season comes, migratory birds often become particularly restless. If the conditions such as wind speed and direction are suitable during this period, then these birds will begin to migrate.

Usually, if birds are raptors, most of them choose to migrate in sunny weather, because in this way, these birds can use the hot airflow during the day to hover, thus making their own consumption very small. If it is a sparrow, it mostly migrates at night. After all, these birds have many natural enemies, and they will meet many natural enemies during the day, but it will be more convenient to move at night.
