📚 GODWIT ODYSSEY

Eastern bar-tailed godwits 🐤take a long trip. A migration trip! As they begin their journey at the top of the globe in the Arctic, they will fly all the way across the Pacific Ocean, stopping at New Zealand at the bottom. To study their habits🧐, scientists have put tiny bands 🩹on the legs🦵 of some godwits so they can track👁️ their movements🐾.

According to data sent back, one bird, named 4BWRB, traveled an extra -long ♾️distance in 2021.

As planned, the pilot🐥 took off 🎬from Alaska 🗺️and crossed the Pacific Ocean🌏. He had been flying nonstop for over a day and a half when wild winds 💨forced him to turn around ↪️ and return to the starting point. After resting for 11 days, 4BWRB tried again🛩️ and was successful ✌️this time. After 57 hours of constant flight, he made it to his finishing line ,New Zealand🥝. He will spend the rest of the year in the place, growing fresh feathers💪🏻 and eating lots of food 🥂as he prepares to do it all again next year.
