Deborah Cramer chronicles the extraordinary migration of the red knot, a small shorebird that travels thousands of miles from the tip of South America to the Arctic. By examining the bird's critical reliance on the eggs of the ancient horseshoe crab, the narrative illuminates the fragile interdependence of coastal ecosystems. This work combines rigorous scientific research with evocative prose to document a species facing the dual threats of habitat loss and climate change.
