At Humboldt Bay, California, where 6000-8000 are estimated to winter and they're abundant for most of the year, bands on 4 godwits at the Arcata Marsh were read in 1994 (Colwell 1995 in Harris 2005), revealing that each was banded less than a mile away, near the former site of the Red House that Kenn Kaufman alludes to in "Kingbird Highway," in 1969.
