Different species of migrating bird have different genetically programmed procedures that signal when it is time to head off and when it is time to return. It may have to do with factors such as daylight, temperature, weather and the Earth’s magnetic field. These migration programmes have been studied before, but new technology and computational capacity make it possible to process large amounts o
