Sometimes it seems like there are not many mysteries remaining to be solved about birds that breed in North America. However, Hudsonian Godwits still represent a true mystery: we do not know how they migrate between their breeding grounds in northern Canada and Alaska and their wintering areas in extreme southern South America. Between their staging areas in southern Alaska and Canada and northern Argentina, godwits largely go unnoticed or unobserved each fall. Do most of them make the trip in one big jump? Is there some stopover site hidden away in some part of remote South America that we don’t know about? And how do they return north each year? Do they all meet up and travel together through the central part of North America? How often do they stop once they reach North America? With the help of eBirders across the western hemisphere we might just solve the mystery!
