"Brrr…. Autumn is here. The winds are cold and strong! It’s time for the blue canaries to fly south where it’s warmer. It’s Little Canary’s first time to travel. They are all going to fly when the sun sets. What if he gets left behind?"
Which Way is South?
"Mother says there’s no need to worry. As long as he follows her lead, he will stay with the flock. Mother also teaches him a song to guide him to the right direction. Relieved, Little Canary goes back to his play."
Which Way is South?
"It is finally time to fly. Little Canary stays close to his mother. But what is that? Little Canary swerves and chases after it. Just then, Mother calls out. He was almost left behind!"
Which Way is South?
"Little Canary dives down. These berries are delightful. There are still many more! How wonderful not to have to share with his brothers and sisters."
Which Way is South?
"Little Canary eats until he feels full. Then, he looks up …. Oh, where is his flock? How will he catch up? The song mother taught him! He must try to recall it."
Which Way is South?
"Fly, fly, to the south we fly To places warm and cozy Fly, fly, fly in the sky To the … the sunset you’ll see. Is it to the right or left? Little Canary cannot recall. Left? Right?"
Which Way is South?
"Which way is south? Should the sun set to the right or to the left? The orange hues in the sky begin to fade. Little Canary still cannot recall."
Which Way is South?
"Tired, he floats with the wind. He remembers there is still more to the song. But what is that place he sees? Perhaps, he’ll find his family there."
Which Way is South?
"Just then the winds slow down. This place is so bright! This must be a town. Little Canary tries harder to recall the song. Finally, he remembers. Yay!"
Which Way is South?
"And when it gets a little too dark The Little Bear will make its mark Fly away from its shimmering tail Fly on south you will not fail. Little Canary needs to find Little Bear in the sky. Then he must fly away from the end of the bear’s tail."
Which Way is South?
"Where is the Little Bear? Which way is south? He is never going to meet his mother again. He’s also going to freeze in this place."
Which Way is South?
"Oh, it’s only the wind. But what is that among the leaves? It’s the Little Bear!Now, all he has to do is to fly away from the end of its tail."
Which Way is South?
"The flock of blue canaries continues their journey, singing: Fly, fly, to the south we fly To places warm and cozy Fly, fly, fly in the sky To the right the sunset you’ll see. And when it gets a little too dark Little Bear will make its mark Fly away from its shimmering tail Fly on south you will not fail."

"Indigo bunting (Passerina cyanea) or the blue canary, are birds that live in eastern United States and southern Canada. Male birds have bright blue feathers, and the females are brown. In the winter, the males lose their blue plumage and resemble the brown females, although a little bit of blue remains. Every autumn, the birds migrate to Mexico and to southern United States. They navigate with the rotation of the Polaris star of the Ursa Minor constellation (also known as Little Bear). Polaris lies at the end of the bear’s tail and is also known as the North Pole Star. It indicates the direction to the north pole and is always seen in the northern hemisphere. Light pollution from excessive artificial light in urban areas, makes it hard to see stars in the sky at night. This has a negative impact on nature, including obstructing bird migration. It is also evidence of electric energy waste."
