Flight for Survival: The Migration of Birds
- Synopsis
- Shows what happens to birds when they migrate to and from Britain and other parts of Europe.

The full treatment of the natural history of migration is supplemented by brief attention to research into migration and navigation with a slight attempt to explain the data.
