They follow invisible pathways   pathways that have been followed for thousands of years   while braving hunger and treacherous conditions to reach their destination. In Circle,Jeannie Baker follows the godwit s incredible flight, taking us over awe-inspiring scenes as the birds spread their wings above such beautiful landmarks as the Great Barrier Reef and China s breathtaking cityscapes.
