The Humber Estuary is a site of special scientific interest and along with Bempton Cliffs Nature Reserve supports more than half a million birds annually including pink footed geese, puffins, avocets and bar-tailed godwits.

Along the way, you may see marbled godwits, snowy egrets and other shorebirds.

Bar-tailed godwits fly from Alaska to New Zealand and Australia without stopping to eat, drink or rest.

The godwit’s epic flight — the longest nonstop migration of a land bird in the world — lasts from eight to 10 days and nights through pounding rain, high winds and other perils.

Satellite transmitters show that godwits often fly nonstop from Alaska to New Zealand.
