Birds migrate across continents by using a combination of instinct, environmental cues, and navigational skills. They are believed to use a variety of methods for navigation including the sun, stars, Earth's magnetic field, and landmarks. Some species also have the ability to detect changes in air pressure and weather patterns to help guide them during their long journeys. Additionally, birds rely on their innate ability to recognize specific migration routes that have been passed down through generations.
