This is very interesting. Take a look at this bird migration tool.

The fall migration is underway! 🐦🦆 🦢

If you like following the Fall Color Finder map, you’re going to love the BirdCast migration map powered by the Cornell Lab, Colorado State University and U Mass Amherst. BirdCast forecasts nightly migration numbers and it’s an amazing way to find out how many (and even which species) birds are soaring by on their way to warmer horizons.

Last week, migration soared on Friday night as roughly 87,000,000 birds took flight across Minnesota on their journey south. The birds averaged 27 mph, an altitude of 2,000ft, and a SSE heading.
