Experiences of aeroplane pilots with air currents have given to a noted English naturalist an explanation for the fact that some birds in making their annual migrations fly along coast lines and along river valleys. Judging from aeroplane experience birds would find It required less effort to fly along such routes. In the daytime water cools the air on most days, and over the water there is a downward current of air. as Indicated by the noticeable sinking of aeroplanes and balloons crossing over a pond. At the same time there Is more or less of an up ward current of air along tbe shore line. Upward current of air greatly help flight, and many kinds of birds are known to take full advantage of them. So tbe naturalist sees an opportunity for birds to take advantage of upward currents of air in migrating by day If they follow the coast or a sea or tne bank of a river. The effect would be most marked on tbe windward side of the water, so that If tbe birds do not fly along that side near tbe water they ought to. Whether at night there ts an appreciable upward current of air over water Is not so clearly established, but be believes it is likely end so would be of advantage to birds If they wished to use It A further explanation of such routes Is that tu birds might learn them In their migrations, for shore lines are tbe easiest of all markings on the earth for an aviator to see and follow, while on a still night the waves on tbe shore can be heard high in tbe air, marking tbe shore line.
