This highly illustrated book tells the story of the godwits and their migrations - why and how they do it. It follows the birds on their intrepid journeys, examining the places they visit, be it an estuary in northern New Zealand, a mudflat on the Chinese-North Korean border, or a tundra nesting site in Alaska. Keith Woodley, godwit expert and manager of the Miranda Shorebird Centre in New Zealand, details the amazing changes these bird undergo before and during their voyages - from moulting into new plumage, to doubling their weight and shrinking non-essential body organs - as well as their array of innate skills in weather prediction and global navigation, weaving the latest scientific findings into history, literature and folklore. In Godwits the author's eye-witness accounts and meticulous research culminate in a tale of navigation and stunning fortitude that will delight both professional bird watchers and general readers curious to discover more about one of nature's quiet achievers.

One Brave Bird. On the shores of the Shoalhaven River on the South Coast of NSW the godwits are preparing for their annual migration to Alaska but their leader Danta is growing old. He knows it's time to choose a new bird to guide the flock on this great journey. Whom will he choose. One heroic boy. Far to the north on the shores of the Yellow River a boy is waiting. The godwits will soon be landing. Gao Wei knows the beach stop-over is vital for these birds. But things are changing; plans are in place for a building complex on the very stretch of land the godwits rely upon. How can one boy oppose the developers? How can he make them understand?
