flyways

/flˈaɪweɪz/ noun B2

migration routes used by birds

Word Origin Flyway is a compound of fly (from Old English fleogan) and way (from weg 'path'). A flyway is a route used by migrating birds — literally a fly-way. The plural flyways refers to these aerial highways. The root fly gives us flight, flyer, and butterfly. Way gives us highway, pathway, subway, and always (all ways). So flyways are the paths birds take through the sky.
