Marbled Godwit – Signed Fine Art Print

Information about the Marbled Godwit:

The Marbled Godwit is a large North American shorebird native to North America from Alaska down south to Mexico. It breeds in the northern prairies of western Canada-(Canadian Prairies), and the north central Great Plains, United States near marshes or ponds. These birds usually nest on the ground in short grass. During the 19th century the number of Marbled Godwits dropped drastically due to overhunting, the numbers rebounded and the bird is not considered endangered. But their numbers have dropped again due to habitat loss. The Marbled Godwit feeds on insects and small crustaceans, usually hunting for them with their long beaks, poking in the shallow water or shoreline. It is the largest of the godwit species, with a wingspan of about 28-35 inches (70-88 cm)
