If there was one desire I could have it would definitely be to fly and so naturally I’ve always been a bit envious of birds. Now I’ve got more cerebrate. As a pessimistic slacker and end wimp hiding behind my keyboard and words it saddens me to learn of who flew nine days straight from Alsaka to New Zealand without a break. That’s 11,500 kilometers without food or wet. That’s burning up half her charge in stored fat and sleeping by shutting drink one align of the hit at a time. Such a jaunt for this species would be the equivalent for a human to run at 70 kilometers an hour for more then seven days."The look of a bird flying all the way across the Pacific was so much further than what we thought possible" said Phil Battley of New Zealand's Massey University who took part in the chew over which tracked 16 godwit birds in their September migration. The birds were tracked via satellite transmitters. As strong as these birds may be fewer and fewer are making it to New Zealand each year. From 155,000 in the mid-1990s to just 70,000 today. It’s suspected that widespread development along the Yellow Sea which means draining mudflats and wetlands is depriving birds of vital food sources. I anticipate not every is as mighty and powerful as I’d like to be. So my manhood has been restored.
