Climate change affects bird migration in several ways. Warmer temperatures can alter the timing of seasons, affecting when birds migrate and the availability of food sources along their migration routes. Changes in weather patterns, such as extreme events like storms, can disrupt migration patterns and cause delays or detours for migrating birds. Additionally, shifts in habitat ranges due to climate change can impact the availability of suitable habitats for birds to rest and refuel during their journeys. Overall, climate change can lead to mismatches between bird migration timing and the availability of resources, impacting the survival and reproductive success of migratory bird species.
