Limited time offer for #NZgodwits: tailwinds more than halfway to Hawaii today!
Follow https://t.co/h0yuMmdZNa to find out whether any of the bar-tailed #godwits staging on the Kuskokwim Shoals in #Alaska will take the bite and begin the trans-Pacific migration to New Zealand...
Zoom-in, zoom-out!
The TWO SPATIAL REALITIES for bar-tailed #godwits migrating from Alaska to New Zealand. 1-Negotiating 10700 km across entire northern Pacific, hindered/facilitated by wind systems, 2-Recovering and refuelling on a reef system near Papua New Guinea.

simple pleasures- Osprey in the bay so the godwits fled and I could just enjoy it splooshing after mullet.
LATEST NEWS ON TRANS-PACIFIC MIGRATION
Bar-tailed #godwit '4BBWY' has second thoughts... This is totally reasonable, as he is facing screaming headwinds south of Unimak, one of islands in Alaskan Arc, right now.

More than half of the sat-tagged black-tailed #godwits breeding in Netherlands & Germany (#grutto, #Uferschnepfe) have left the countries towards south, but no #Sahara crossings yet. Breeding success has been poor in most areas. Follow them yourself at: https://t.co/baocug4ZOp
<No. 065 Bar-tailed Godwit>
The mudflats of the Yellow sea are precious rest areas on our long trip from New Zealand to Alaska.
If you want to find me, try to look for a bird with a slightly upturned bill.

Interestingly, low pressure system throbbing north of Aleutians divided arriving #NZgodwits. Tow of the five took path of least resistance south of system, but one fought headwinds north of Saint Paul. What will next 2 do? See: https://t.co/h0yuMmdZNa

30th January 1019 AD. The last Bear in England stood by the flat golden shores of the Wash, midst the oystercatchers & the godwits. His heart was troubling him & he had little strength left. As the moon rose, he felt dizzy & fell there on the soft dunes, under a blaze of stars.
Merry Christmas everyone_
