  5. Research some of these species to see if your answers are correct. Which species sometimes form flocks? Which almost never get together in flocks?

​Note: Answers will vary depending on the videos selected. No answer sheet is provided.

​Sample Questions: Bird Migration


Note: Many of these videos do not have any narration. Students should try to draw their conclusions from their observation of the birds in the videos and then seek other media sources.
  1. All the birds in these videos (except for a few in the “Year of the Bird”) migrate. Why do you think they do this?
  2. Which birds migrate to our area? Why do they come here?
  3. Why do these birds leave our area? Why do they leave?
  4. Which birds migrate north to our area in the spring?
  5. Which birds migrate south to our area in the winter?
  6. Which species is found mainly in Africa? Why does it migrate?
