Bird migration : Clock and compass facilitate hemisphere switching

Helm, Barbara and Muheim, Rachel LU (2021) In Current biology : CB 31(17). p.1058-1061
Abstract

After cross-equatorial wintering, migratory birds reliably return to their natal grounds, but a population of cliff swallows recently switched breeding hemisphere. They inverted their annual cycle and migration directions almost instantaneously.
