[Tweeters] Bird flies 7, 500 miles nonstop, breaking world record | Live Science

[Dennis Paulson]

I was asked if it was the first photo in the article, and it wasn’t—it was the first still photo of a flying bird in the VIDEO. I hope everyone got that. The godwit busily probing before that was in the company of a couple of Great Knots.
