World Curlew Day

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: blessgans.de/?891. 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 👍👍

👇fab event Alnwick 21 April! Last wk I saw dozens of #curlew feeding up for migration. I crawled thru the dunes at dawn so as not to spook these waking up near Boulmer. @curlewcalls @WCDApril21 @waderquest @WaderStudy @nybirdnews @NTBirdClub #BirdsOfTwitter #birds @CurlewLIFE

Mary Cowell interviews Heather Hayes, who is fighting to save the Long-billed Curlew - a curlew that's already threatened by climate change is now being used for target practice. Curlews need space and all species are under threat: wadertales.wordpress.com/2017/03/01/why… #ornithology

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! curlewaction.org/donate/

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. #EarthDay
