The #Curlew family has #WorldCurlewDay on 21 April but every day is a #GodwitDay! Here's a pic by Karen Munro of a Black-tailed Godwit that has its own blog: wadertales.wordpress.com/2018/04/04/jus… There are 30 #godwit blogs here: wadertales.wordpress.com/about/ #waders #shorebirds #ornithology



Congratulations Dr Charles A. Emogor, PhD! The conservation science group in @cambridge_uccri really know how to throw a viva party! Great work on pangolin conservation.


Two Spoon-billed Sandpipers tagged in Thailand last month safely reached Eastern China - they stopped at multiple coastal sites. Their journeys once again underscore the crucial role of interconnected coastal wetlands in conserving endangered species along Asian flyways. Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force


Crikey! News to me too. What a sensible programme. Thanks Jeff! #SpoonbilledSandpiper Guy Anderson BirdLife International BirdLife Asia Wild Beijing 北京自然 @jamesthetyke Paulson Institute The British Nature Guide Rob Sheldon Kane Brides WWT @JonathanSlaght Graham Appleton Cornell Lab



The endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper K9's spring migration from Thailand exceeded expectations, with a 19-day stopover in Jiangsu, China. It continued to Sakhalin & then reached a new breeding area in Russia! These insights will help inform critical conservation actions Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force


The Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force is at the Global Birdfair today! Come visit and learn about our conversation initiatives across the East Asian Flyway. Robin Marquee (R17)


If you are visiting Global Birdfair , also come visit the stand of Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force! #OBC is supporting the Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force to conserve this #CriticallyEndangered bird! If you'd like to help out and donate, go to orientalbirdclub.org/donate and enter “SBSTF“.


This Spoonie [Yellow PU] was first flagged in Jiangsu, China in Sept-2018. It was later re-sighted in Meghna Estuary, Bangladesh where it spent the winter from Nov-2019 to Mar-2020. After that, it wasn't seen again until this summer in Chukotka, Russia! Amazing results Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force
