Flyway gives US birders a daily GO / FAIR / SKIP score by combining wind direction, pressure trend, front passage, and your habitat — the way experienced birders do, automatically.
Daily Score
Informational tool only. Conditions estimate based on weather data. Actual bird activity varies by site, season, species, and many factors beyond weather.
Features
GO / FAIR / SKIP based on wind direction, pressure trend, front passage, visibility, and time of day. Scores update every hour.
Get notified at 3 AM when overnight fallout conditions are detected at your patch. Never miss the migration event of the season. (Pro)
Plan weekend trips with a week of birding scores. See which day is worth making the drive to your target hotspot. (Pro)

Same weather = opposite answers for coastal vs. inland vs. raptor ridge. Your habitat changes everything. Coastal, forest, raptor, waterfowl.
Hourly breakdown surfaces your top 3 hours for today and each forecast day. Know when dawn activity peaks at your exact patch. (Pro)
Habitat Scoring
Onshore wind, fog, and front passage scored for pelagic push and fallout conditions at your coastline.
Calm mornings, falling pressure, and overnight tailwinds for warbler and songbird migration scoring.
Thermal-building winds and ridge conditions scored for hawk migration counting sites.
Wind stir, cold fronts, and temperature drops that push ducks and geese into movement scored for marsh sites.
How It Works
Coastal, inland forest, raptor ridge, or waterfowl marsh. Your habitat changes how every weather input is scored.
Wind direction, pressure trend, front passage timing, visibility, and sunrise window — pulled automatically from Open-Meteo.
