There have been some satellite tagged shorebirds heading south for a few weeks. 
 Just on schedule.   As Joe mentioned, they are often birds that failed to nest 
  Because the time frame for nesting in much of their preferred arctic habitat 
is very short, if a first nest fails the adults often leave; sometimes they 
attempt a second brood and the female will stay and try to raise the young on 
her own.   Those males seem to take care of themselves!!  Just kidding, it is 
survival of the fittest out there in the bird world despite sex.
