Calls are typically brief sounds and are relatively simple in acoustic structure. In longer calls there is no clear pattern or organization. Calls tend to be genetically determined.
Songs are more complex and are made up of a group of notes separated from another group of notes.
The song is used in attracting mates, defending territories, maintaining the pair bond, and synchronize the reproductive activities of mates. The basic notes of a song are inherited but a full song of the species can only be learned. Most migrating birds fly at relatively low heights, rarely travelling over 400m. above the ground. However, for some species, flying at high altitudes is beneficial if there is a mountain range as circumnavigating an entire mountain range would lead to the addition of a few hundred kilometres to the migratory flight path. Flying over a mountain is much more convenient,which is what some species of ducks and geese do.
