Birds have superpowers that help them travel really far. Some use the sun, some use stars, and others even feel the Earth's magnetic field like a secret map! They learn how to navigate from older birds, just like kids learning to ride bikes.
Examples
- A swallow learns how to fly from Africa to Europe by watching its parents.
- A bird follows the sun like a tiny car follows a road.
- A sparrow feels the pull of the Earth’s magnetic field, just like a compass needle.
