Migration maps by group
Live migration radar
Most songbirds migrate at night, and the best way to see that is weather radar. BirdCast, from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and partners, publishes nightly migration forecasts and live radar maps for the United States. This page shows something different: where people have reported each bird on the ground.
