| Perhaps the most amazing songbird of all is the blackpoll warbler. The blackpoll warbler, for example, makes an incredible leap from Alaska to the Amazon. The blackpoll warbler weighs in at under an ounce, even after its pre-flight feeding frenzy, yet in 72 hours manages to fly up to 2,000 miles from Maine to northern Venezuela without food, water or even a minute's treetop respite. |
