Springbok Marvels at Bird Migration in Wings Over SA

November 1, 2023, Johannesburg, South Africa (Press Release) – South Africa is a favourite destination of many birds migrating from Europe. This month, Springbok Casino looks at some of the most amazing bird migrations that end in South Africa in its new Wings Over South Africa feature.

The Amur Falcon, a small raptor, undertakes one of the most remarkable migratory journeys in the avian world. Originating from their breeding grounds in Siberia and Northern China, these falcons traverse an impressive 22,000 kilometers round trip every year, chasing the warmth of the southern hemisphere.

TThe Amur Falcon’s journey is incredible, but another small bird holds the migration record. Known for having the longest migratory journey of any bird species, Artic Terns travel an astounding 70,000 kilometers round trip from their Arctic breeding grounds to the southern tip of Africa.

Each year, as Europe's landscapes are draped in autumn hues and temperatures drop, the European Swallow embarks on a spectacular journey. Covering distances of up to 11,000 kilometers, these agile avians set their sights on a warmer haven: South Africa.

Springbok’s special feature includes one video that explains HOW birds find there way on long migrations and another that discusses WHY they take these long, annual trips around the world.

Migratory birds face many challenges during their long journeys, ranging from habitat loss to climate change effects. One video in Springbok’s collection looks at conservation groups that have mobilized to ensure these birds have safe passage across continents and oceans.
