These birds spend the winters in Pakistan and go back to their native habitats in the summers. The route these birds take from Siberia to Pakistan is known as International Migratory Birds' Route Number 4. It is also called the Green Route or Indus Flyway.

Other factors include changes in temperature, reduced daylight hours, and instinctive behaviour.The Indus F...
