Every spring, billions of birds sweep north, driven by ancient
instincts to return to their breeding grounds. This vast parade
often goes unnoticed, except in a few places where these small
travellers concentrate in large numbers. One such place is along
Lake Erie in northwestern Ohio. There, the peak of spring migration
is so spectacular that it attracts bird watchers from around the
globe, culminating in one of the world's biggest birding festivals.
Millions of winged migrants pass through the region, some traveling
thousands of miles, performing epic feats of endurance and
navigating with stunning accuracy. Now climate change threatens to
disrupt patterns of migration and the delicate balance between
birds, seasons, and habitats. But wind farms - popular as green
energy sources - can be disastrous for birds if built in the wrong
places. This is a fascinating and urgent study of the complex
issues that affect bird migration.
