Ornithologist Janice Hughes discusses bird migration through human history, with profiles of Chinese cranes and phalaropes; the five Ws of avian migration, with profiles of shrikes and Arctic terns; the phenomenon of flight, with profiles of wheatears and dippers; how birds find their way, with profiles of redwings, fieldfares, and Bohemian waxwings; and migratory birds in peril.
