As winter approaches, birds fly south to escape the cold. We see them preparing for their journey, with some packing suitcases in their claws and others taking creative routes, like a bird nest on a balloon or a parakeet with his entire cage. A duck couple anxiously awaits the hatching of their egg, but when it refuses to open, the father takes matters into his own hands, lighting a match to crack it open. The resulting junior duck is seen hopping around with a burnt toe before the family joins their fellow birds in crossing the Mason-Dixon Line, where they're greeted by a warm welcome and a Southern gentleman's grumble about "those consarned Yankees."

A flock of birds takes to the skies, braving the elements as they migrate south for the winter, employing clever strategies to streamline their journey.
