THE coronavirus pandemic may have put a firm brake on international travel for many people, but it has had no effect on the flights of migratory birds.
The birds continued their annual hazardous 25,000 kilometre round trips from the northern to the southern hemisphere.
Western Port and Port Phillip bays are the favoured destinations for many species and more than 300 artists have contributed to an exhibition that highlights the tenuous existence faced by these intrepid international travellers.
