Bird Migration Routes.- Many North American birds come to the far northern regions of the continent in summer to reproduce and raise their young. Long summer days in the north produce an abundance of insects and plants for birds and their young to eat. Because this food is not available during cold, winter months, many birds migrate south to forage in warmer climates. These birds follow migratory routes, called flyways, between their northern breeding grounds and southern wintering areas. There are four major flyways in North America: the Pacific, Central, Mississippi and Atlantic Flyway. 7, record 1, English, - bird%20migration%20route

Chez un grand nombre d'espèces, la route vers le nord est différente de celle suivie en direction sud. Des sites différents peuvent présenter un intérêt pour les oiseaux selon la saison, en raison du climat et de la disponibilité de la nourriture; c'est pourquoi les trajectoires de migration prennent la forme d'une ellipse. 9, record 1, French, - voie%20migratoire%20des%20oiseaux
