Every year, the rufa red knots fly from the Arctic to Tierra del Fuego, at the southernmost point of South America and back. B95—nicknamed Moonbird because he has flown the distance to the moon and halfway back!—was banded in 1995 and is still making the trip. Follow his journey and the many challenges he faces, and meet the people who are trying to save the red knots from extinction. Illus. with photos.
