That’s not remotely close to the distance record for a migration, but there is still something special about this particular migration: according to the article, “bar-headed geese hold the altitude record for birds,” [a researcher] said. “They migrate over the Himalayas, at 30,000 feet. That’s the height of jumbo jets.”
