All of them!


The swallows return to Capistrano (in california)


Geese are classics, with their skeins honking in the night


whales go from mexico to the arctic


lemmings follow their path even if it requires throwing themselves off a cliff


salmon return from the ocean to the rivers of their birth to spawn and die


monarch butterflies are long lived and travel from mexico up the west coast of the US


wildebeest create thundering herds that sweep across the serengeti

Lemming migration is not quite the same as the others. For all the examples except lemmings, the migration happens on a seasonal/annual basis. Lemmings remain in the same area until their population numbers get too large and food supplies cannot cope. Then, the lemmings will migrate out of the area in search of new homes and food. This happens perhaps every four years or so.


In the Uk Swallows migrate from South Africa not California!
