Why this word is great
FLYWAY — [Noun] A migratory route used by birds between breeding and wintering areas. From fly ("to travel through the air") + way ("path, route"). Unlike "migration route" (a general term for any animal's seasonal path) or "flight path" (a momentary trajectory), a flyway is the ancient, avian superhighway—etched into instinct and sky. It is the V of geese stitching continents together, the sandhill cranes descending like feathered pilgrims onto the Platte River, the arctic tern’s impossible loop from pole to pole—an ancient script written in wind and wingbeat, proof that the earth still remembers how to guide its children home.
