When cold weather comes,many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes Give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed.

As the tree grows, it adds a layer to its trunk, taking up chemical elements from the air. By looking at elements in the rings from a certain year, scientists can what elements were in the air that year.
