Bar-tailed #godwit 4BWWY of the #NZgodwits is not the only migratory #shorebird heading south.
With German and Dutch #grutto's, German #curlews have started southward migration too. Tagged birds can be followed at: https://t.co/Re8lISGk8u. Movements to W and SW from NE Germany!
Great to get single Curlew flying high & downstream on survey at @WaddesdonManor Eythrope wetlands earlier. 10 now at least on @RiverThameCT. 9 Pintail a great support act as were 44 Snipe & single Jack Snipe. Heavy flooding & stunning views as sun burnt the fog off 👍👍

Stunning short film for World Curlew Day, music/narration by the wonderful @DavidGray. We might not be able to get outside, but we can still do something for the outdoors! @CurlewAction@WCDApril21@curlewcalls@CurlewCountry

Bristle-thighed curlew created by Josmar Marquez (@birdnaturalart on instagram) for #worldcurlewday. This species migrates thousands of miles non-stop across the Pacific Ocean between its breeding grounds in Alaska and its winter home on Pacific Islands! https://t.co/dNOzyWVGsg
Tomorrow is #WorldCurlewDay.
Curlews are at risk of extinction. They need our help. Follow @CurlewAction for more info.
To acknowledge their singular beauty I drew a lone Curlew striding across the Earth, represented here by the Extinction Symbol.

With tomorrow being #worldcurlewday@WCDApril21 I wanted to dedicate my #DrawWithDon on YouTube to this beautiful bird. It will go live at 9.45 tomorrow morning - don’t forget to share your pictures with me - it’s so nice to see them all. #StayHomeStayCreative
