| The Marbled Godwit is the largest shorebird to regularly visit New England. It breeds on the western grasslands of central Canada and northern United Sates, and occurs on Plymouth Beach in late summer and early fall. The Marbled Godwit has a long, slightly upturned bill with a distinctive bright pink basal end. It is commonly seen wading in shallow water along tidal flats. The Marbled Godwit is a Bird of Conservation Concern (USFWS 2008). |
