So it's a shorebird but look at its use of the Pacific Ocean.  Amazing.

Dear all,

The first Satellite tracked Bar-tailed Godwit to be tracked from New
Zealand to the Yellow Sea on to Alaska is now returned and landed in New
Zealand. This will mark a complete record of the most amazing annual
migration cycle of a shorebird.

For more on this fantastic journey, visit the USGS website that provides an
excellent overview of all its PTT marked birds.
