White Stork
migration |
The migration of the White Storks has
2 paths: an Eastern route via Turkey, the Middle East, the Nile Valley to reach East
Africa and even South Africa, and a Western route via Gibraltar to reach the North of
Africa.
White Storks from Switzerland migrate
with the western stork populations via Gibraltar.

Questions :
- Why don’t all Swiss White Storks all migrate?
- Do White Storks from the same area leave at the same time?
- Do they stay together during the winter and for the return trip?
- Where do they make stops?
- Do they all choose the same migration path?
