    Wind is of foremost importance to affect migrating birds' optimal flying speed and altitude, and their optimal migratory routes. Different species of migrating birds are expected to be selective of favourable winds for their migratory flights to different degrees. The relationship between costs for fuel transportation and benefit by being highly selective of winds will determine optimal wind selectivity and fuel ratio in migrating birds. Optimal wind selectivity will be expected to be high with, i.a., widely chinging winds along the migratory route, a short distance and long duration of migration. see attached images for a better understanding.
