Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. migrants.

Let's have a look at the meaning of the given options:-

  1. migrants- a bird or an animal that moves from one place to another according to the season.
  2. visitors- a person who visits somebody/something.
  3. travellers- a person who is travelling or who often travels.
