FLYBY The highest-flying migrant birds are bar-headed geese. They migrate over Mount Everest, which is above 29,000 feet, on their way from the lowlands of sub-continent to their nesting grounds in Tibet. They can make this trip of over 1,000 miles in a day with a tailwind. This mountain peak is known as "Malika Parbat" at 16,000 plus feet in the Kaghan Valley in Northern Pakistan.
