Map Daily News The Chicks The Team In the Classroom Trailer with Travel Pen Photo Operation Migration Today's Journal Question: Young cranes must be taught where to migrate, but not how to fly. (See How Cranes Fly.) Birds are genetically programmed to fly; they do it by instinct. What things do YOU do by instinct? What things did you need to be taught?
