Quest'uccello apparentemente semplice è il più incredibile trasvolatore in assoluto, capace di effettuare migrazioni anche di oltre 10.000 Km senza mai fermarsi, più di un aereo di linea.

Hello everyone Elijah chrisg, Clare thanks for the compliments.
I apologize if they are not very present in the comments but I'm going to the Macbook and Ipad (it is not exactly easy to write). But I follow you and I appreciate your beautiful photos even if only with like.
As far as the Bar-tailed Godwit Clare, this bird apparently simple is the most amazing fly across ever, capable of performing migrations also more than 10,000 km without stopping, more than an airliner.
Read this article from Corriere della sera ..... hello Vincent.

And 'the longest distance covered by a bird so far recorded
Flight records: 11,550 km bird does not stop godwit A child has covered the distance between New Zealand and Alaska without ever touching the ground

WELLINGTON (New Zealand) - Even though she does not know it has become famous, with a record that goes down in history, the longest non-stop flight: 11,500 km non-stop from Alaska to New Zealand. An unprecedented record for a bird, at least as far as we know so far, established by the Bar-tailed Godwit (Limosa lapponica), a migratory bird. Present in Asia and Alaska, for the winter traveling to Europe, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. "E7" is the code name given to the female monitored by ornithologists, who did not fly, thus entering of law in the Guinness Book of Records with the longest non-stop flight by a bird, which had great prominence on the site of newspaper 'New Zealand Herald'. It is the first venture for a bird of this species: last April, hreported to the Association for the Protection of Birds BirdLife International, a Bar-tailed Godwit had flown nonstop from New Zealand to North Korea along 10,200 kilometers.
NIGHT AND DAY - As reported Phil Battley of New Zealand Massey University pittima the lower arrived last Friday, exhausted after the long journey to the Pacific in New Zealand. And 'first game for his flight "forward" from New Zealand in the direction of China (10,000 km). Here he paused about five weeks - he pointed to Alaska to hatch (7,300 km). At the end of August, during the return flight, E7 instead remained night and day in flight, without making any stops on Hawaii or Fiji. "He could walk along the lands of Alaska and start with the crossing of the Pacific Ocean about 500 miles to the south, though he did not"Said Battley. "This shows that such a long flight does not create any problem."

The track record of the flight (click to enlarge)
DATA - The data were gathered through a microchip implanted satellite last February under the tail of 16 birds of this species. The antenna was attached to the abdominal walls of the birds. This has allowed experts to observe exactly all the flight path. Of the 16 black-tailed godwit lower four have reached China or Korea without stopping, he added Battley. They travel in groups of 30-70 birds. The unique birds to record the extinction risk, however: since 1950 more than a third of the territories inhabited by the Bar-tailed Godwit were destroyed in favor of urbanization.
