Marbled Godwit
Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada, June 1, 2021. A very unexpected visitor to our area. Seen in the Erieau channel from our pontoon. Limosa fedoa Most Marbled Godwits breed in the northern Great Plains, but there are two far-flung exceptions. One small population breeds along the southwest coast of James Bay, Ontario, Canada. Another small group breeds on the Alaska Peninsula. The Alaskan birds have shorter wings and are heavier than those breeding in the Great Plains. Source -Cornell Lab of Ornithology- All About Birds
