Migration of Birds
"The migrations of birds were probably among the first natural phenomena to attract the attention and arouse the imagination of man. ... migratory birds have been important as a source of food after a lean winter and as the harbinger of a change in season." -- Lincoln, Frederick C. and Steven R. Peterson
