Random Thought of the Day

Did you know...

The Arctic Tern migrates farther than any other migratory animal in the world. Actually, they migrate from pole to pole!


Migration route of the Arctic Tern. Breeds in the Arctic (red) and
vacations in the Antarctic (blue).

 That's right, from Arctic to Antarctic and back!

Every year.

That's more than 44,300 miles!!! Holy cow. That's a long way to fly.

Also one of my favorite birds!
