The Mississippi flyway is one of the four major migratory bird routes of the North American continent. Many species of land birds use the Mississippi flyway to reach their breeding grounds in coastal and inland areas of Mississippi, while other birds winter in the state's marshes. Migratory birds in Mississippi during at least part of the year include the wood thrush, Kentucky warbler, Canada goose, dunlin, least tern, sandwich tern, Bonaparte's gull, and many species of ducks.
The Mississippi Flyway and the Central Flyway.
The Mississippi Flyway is a bird migration route that generally follows the Mississippi River in the United States and the Mackenzie River in Canada. This main endpoints of the flyway include central Canada and the region surrounding the Gulf of Mexico; the migration route tends to narrow considerably in the lower Mississippi River valley in the states of Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana, which account for the high number of bird species found in those areas. Some birds even use this flyway to migrate from the Arctic Ocean to Patagonia. This route is used by birds typically because no mountains or even ridges of hills block this path over its entire extent. Good sources of water, food, and cover exist over its entire length. About 40% of all North American migrating waterfowl and shorebirds use this route.

The "Mississippi Flyway" is a waterfowl migration route through the US that follows the Mississippi River Valley and the Mackenzie River in Canada. It crosses few areas of steeply-elevated terrain and has substantial food sources. It generally includes Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Missouri, and the states of the Midwest and western Great Lakes. (map at related link)
