おもしろい事実

Newly hatched Bar-tailed Godwit chicks can leave the nest and find food for themselves almost immediately.

Their scientific name, Limosa lapponica, fittingly means "muddy from Lapland," describing their favorite wet habitats.

These amazing birds can sense and respond to changes in barometric pressure, helping them avoid storms during migration.

They double their body weight, mostly fat, before their astonishing non-stop migratory flights!
