High fidelity to wintering, stop-over and breeding sites shown by a Long-billed Curlew Numenius americanus tracked with satellite telemetry on migratory flights across North America

Capsule We studied the migratory movements and site fidelity of a male Long-billed Curlew using satellite telemetry in North America; the bird completed three migratory cycles and showed strong fidelity to stop-over, breeding, and wintering sites, not only on a geographical scale but also on a local scale across the years.
