Imagine you're flying through the sky and you don't have a map, just your instincts. Some birds use the sun to know where they are going, like a giant clock in the sky! They also use the stars, like a night-time guide. Some even use magnetic fields underground to help them find their way home.
Examples
- A bird uses the sun like a giant clock to know which way to fly.
