A story about commitment

The story of a migratory bird is a story about a promise, a promise
to return.
Their journeys are thousands of miles, and they have gone through crises
for one purpose: to survive
. Migration of migratory birds is a fight for life.

Looking at numbers like this, it will be a little shocking.

"The Eurasian Grey Crane flies 2,500 miles
from Spain to the northern pine forest and the

white stork flies 3,100 miles
from central Africa to western Europe The

white-fronted geese flies 1,500 miles
from western Europe to Greenland

The whooper swan flies 1,800 miles
from the far east to the Siberian ice sheet Bar-

headed geese fly 1,500 miles
from India to Central Asian steppes Red-

crowned cranes fly 600 miles
from Far East to Siberia taiga

bald eagles fly 1,800 miles
from western United States to Alaska

Canada geese fly 2,000 miles
Gulf of Mexico to Arctic Circle

snow geese fly 2,500 miles
from Mexico Bay to Arctic

Sandhill Cranes fly 2,000 miles
from the central plains of the United States to the Arctic

Arctic swallows 12,500 miles
from the North Pole to Antarctic

Waders fly 6,200 miles
from the Arctic Circle to the West Coast of Africa "

I saw it wandering helpless, wailing and searching
I saw It's stuck in oil, can't extricate itself
I see them fall after the gunshots, so reluctant to give up to the sky
I saw it smashed its wings, besieged by crabs, until the bones were gone
I saw them fly from pole to pole, from one hemisphere to the other, crossing the latitude and longitude I
saw them go forward regardless of the storm, day and night

Witnessed their promise to come back
I witnessed a great adventure

Yes, I saw you feel the sorrow of the sky like spirits in the wind

    Cameramen, hard work! Beautiful picture showing the condition of migrating birds. That blue parrot is the one from RIO, right? When I opened the cage, I couldn't help but admire the wisdom that was forced out by human beings. Did it eventually become extinct? How many similar tragedies will there be under the guns of hunters and the capture of humans? Nature is amazing~ It would be great if everyone got along harmoniously~

    This is a shocking documentary, every scene in the film is refreshing, and seeing this film is like being in a dream about living in the city. . I have never observed the flight of birds so carefully, so beautiful and light. The magnificence of nature and the magic of life can be seen through migrating birds. . .
