Pacific golden plover in breeding plumage—soon to be flying 5,500 miles to the Alaskan Arctic

During northern summers, three shorebirds--plover, turnstone, and tattler--nest in Alaska and northern Canada.  After nesting, they fly non-stop over 3,000 miles of open ocean to Hawaii.  After briefly resting there, they fly more thousands of miles to Samoa.  The round-trip is 11,000 miles.
