No surprise there, since there’s a hell of a lot more birds than planes or Supermans.... er, uh, Supermen.
In 1918, back when Congress actually did some work, they passed the Migratory Bird Treaty Act to protect birds from you murderers.
So 2018 marking 100 years since Congress actually did some work, National Geographic, National Audubon, BirdLife International,
and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, teamed up to promote birdie stuff.

At the Nat Geo website they posted an interactive map of bird migration in the Americas.
Down the page they let you explore the migration of the Wood Thrush, Western Tanager, White-Throated Sparrow, Magnolia Warbler,
Fork-Tailed Flycatcher, Broad-Winged Hawk, and Greater Yellowlegs.
I believe because those seven demonstrate the basic types of migrations.
