Abstract
Animal migration has fascinated humans at least since Aristotle’s time, but we only started to understand its details thanks to the famous “arrow storks” in the 19th century that returned to Europe with arrows in their bodies, providing the first clues of African wintering sites. Bird migration has received a large amount of attention since then, but knowledge about migration of other organisms, even small passerine birds, remains rudimentary.
