How do you count birds flying unseen in the dark? George Lowery aimed a telescope at the moon and tallied the silhouettes crossing its face. This ingenious study measures the great nocturnal migration by the shadows passing overhead. A clever milestone in the science of bird movement. Discover how the night sky gave up the secret of migration.
