Currently Playing: The Quiet Science of How Birds Find Their Way Without a Map

How do birds know where to go without a map? Tonight, enjoy a quiet observation of the mystery behind bird migration. In this calm Science for Sleep documentary, we explore the natural wonder of avian orientation. From the instinctual pull that guides a flock of birds in flight to the subtle environmental cues that shape their paths, we look at the quiet mechanics of how birds migrate across vast distances. We examine the biological tools that enable animal navigation, observing species as they travel from branch to sky. By slowing down to watch their movement, we can better appreciate the complex, invisible systems that allow these creatures to traverse the globe with such precision, even when the world below appears to be standing still.
