1t is difficult to account for the enor-
nous velocity of some birds flight
when migrating. The northern blue
throat goes at the rate of $40 miles an
hour. flying 1880 miles from Egypt to
Helgoland in spring night of barely
nine hours. Virginian plover fly from
Labrador to north Brazil, 5000 miles,
without stopping, going at the rate OF
63G miles an hour and probably more.
How can this speed be attained? The
birds resort to great heights, where the
resistance of the air is slight.
