Eli5: Why do birds fly in V’s?
In: 3
Flying is like moving through a big pool of air. It’s hard because the air is in the way. Imagine it’s like swimming, but in the air! When birds travel together, the first bird works really hard to make a path through the air, like a leader in a game. The other birds stay beside the leader, and they take turns being the leader. This way, everyone helps each other, and it’s not as tiring for each bird. They’re like a team, making the journey much easier for everyone!
