Migration
Every year hundreds of birds, mammals, and insects par take in a roundtrip journey to find a warmer climate, a better reproductive environment, and more food. Three species in particular that make this migration every year are the golden cheeked warbler, the whooping crane, and the monarch butterfly. Also, scientists believe they have figured out why these animals never wander off course or get lost. Scientists have carefully tracked several species to try to fully understand their migration behavior. The golden – cheeked warbler is a bird that migrates twice a year. From mid – March to late July these birds can be found in central Texas. They call the Ashe Juniper trees home, and these trees are also their breeding sites. When July finally comes around the baby warblers have grown enough to make the migration and it commences. All of the warblers head south to find more food. From late July to mid – March the warblers are somewhere in Mexico and South America. According to the National Wildlife Federation their winter home is not specifically denoted (4). However, wherever they call home in our winter they find ample food to make it back to Texas again in March.
