Meanwhile, our northernmost tagged Godwit is currently taking a well-deserved pitstop in the picturesque Camargue region of southern France.
It's a vital pause in its journey northward, offering a moment of respite before it resumes its grand migration. There it rests before spending the breeding season and its summer months somewhere between our project areas Friesland and Freiburg.
In the meantime, our project staff are preparing to equip more Black-tailed Godwits with GPS transmitters in the coming season.
