Birds migrate across continents using a variety of strategies. They navigate using celestial cues like the sun and stars, geomagnetic cues, and landmarks. They also rely on their innate sense of direction and the Earth's magnetic field. Additionally, birds may use weather patterns to aid their journey, such as flying with tailwinds to conserve energy during long flights. Some species also fly in V-formations to reduce wind resistance and save energy during migration.
