They leave our areas when the cold and darkness sets in during the fall, and return in the spring. During the winter months, they stay in more southerly latitudes in areas where it is warmer and brighter and thus easier to maintain body heat and find the food they need to survive. There is a big difference in how far and where they migrate. Some migrate just a little further south or west on the European continent while others migrate all the way down to the southern hemisphere. The red-billed terns that breed in wetlands and beach areas north of Svalbard in the summer, migrate all the way down to the Southern Ocean for the Antarctic summer.<\/p><p>Migratory birds largely follow the continents between south and north, along coastlines and over land. We call these \"flyways\". Migratory birds that breed in Norway largely follow what we call the African-Eurasian Flyway, also known as the East Atlantic Flyway. Most migratory bird species need to rest and eat during the long journey between summer and winter stops. For water-associated birds, these are shorelines and shallow water areas that are rich in nutrients. Such areas are often threatened by human activity such as development, pollution, hunting and over-harvesting. In order for the birds to survive, the breeding areas in the north, the network of staging areas along the migration routes and the wintering areas in the south must be preserved. Protecting birds and their habitats in one country does not help if they and their habitats are threatened in other countries along this migration route. It is important that all countries work together on this.

The challenges faced by migratory birds in Norway are a very important issue for NOF, because migratory birds in Norway are also threatened by encroachment on nature that destroys breeding grounds and resting places. The populations of 57 bird species are in decline, and for some this decline is significant. The situation is particularly worrying for some wading bird species and several seabird species. The ruff, guillemot and kittiwake are among the most threatened species. A clear decline has also been documented in the populations of several species associated with the cultural landscape, including lapwing and curlew.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oslo and Akershus have many important resting places for migrating birds. The inner Oslofjord acts as a \"funnel\", and many migratory birds rest at Fornebu with its Stor\u00f8ykilen and Koksa nature reserves in particular. The Nordre \u00d8yeren nature reserve, with northern Europe's largest inland delta, is home to thousands of migrating geese, ducks, waders and small birds. The rich cultural landscape in Aurskog-H\u00f8land municipality, with several small lakes, also has several good migration sites, such as Hellesj\u00f8vannet, Kjelle and Hemnessj\u00f8en. \u00d8stensj\u00f8vannet, in the middle of Oslo, also has a number of migrating waders and other species.
