Do birds fly for days while over the ocean? How do they sleep?
In: Biology
It really depends on the particular bird species and their migration route. But many have the same ability dolphins do, to “partially” sleep allowing them to rest and continue navigating. If the migration route is not over the ocean for several day the species may flip its sleep cycle to take naps during the day.
TLDR: species specific
