#Migratory #Bird Day's explanation is linked through 'the main word' below; but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...
The word “Migratory” (Moving (usually as a Herd) from one Place to another) is built on ancient words that mean "to Change, Go."

The word “Bird” is built on ancient words that mean Young Fowl-Nestling (used to refer to other young animals & humans as well ... also used for Young Royal Heiresses, the reason why women are often (vulgarly) called Chicks).
#FLIPPINGtheBird (Extending the Middle-|Finger in "the Pursuit of the Indication of Dishonour" (paraphrasing the 12c. Latin bestiary at Cambridge)) is built on #GiveTheBigBird (when you'd |Hiss like a |Goose to express annoyance with someone), transferred to 'the |Boos, |Hisses and |Catcalls (|Heckles?) on |Vaudeville,' applied to 'giving the |UpYours sign.'
