PaginePaginepagineapp.comIn fall, many geese fly south to find warmer weather and food. They often fly in the shape of a V.
The goose at the front pushes through the air. The geese behind it can fly more easily because the air is lifting them.
When the leader gets tired, it moves to the back and another goose takes a turn.
By sharing the hard work, the whole flock can travel much farther.
