Bar-tailed Godwits Presentation
Please join Redwood Region Audubon Society on Wednesday, May 17 at 7:00 for refreshments and at 7:30 pm for a program by Dr. Jesse Conklin entitled “Bar-tailed Godwits: A personal history of excessive flying”. In this talk, Jesse will discuss how his own career in ornithology, including 18 years of research on Alaska-breeding Bar-tailed Godwits, has been irreparably entwined with the quest to understand just how far a bird can fly. Each year, these birds make a round trip of more than 30,000 kilometers between Alaska and their non-breeding areas in New Zealand and Australia. Jesse will discuss how our understanding of the godwits’ incredible trans-Pacific migration has evolved over time with advancements in tracking technology, and how much we still don’t know.
