Bar-tailed Godwit flies from Alaska to Australia for the summer months here - a non-stop flight of over 10,000kms (6200miles) across the Pacific, the longest known non-stop flight of any bird!

Here is an article showing where a Bar-tailed Godwit sets non-stop of 13,560kms or 8,400mils from Alaska to Tasmania!!! An amazing feat of endurance.
