Bluebirds, mallard ducks and other beloved California birds may vanish from our summer skies, according to an alarming new report released by the National Audubon Society.
Climate change could shrink or shift the range of half of the nation's 588 bird species over the next 65 years, forcing them to move or adapt to smaller homes, according to the group's scientists.
Some species, unable to change, may become extinct.

How are the species threatened when there has been no actual warming for 18 years?
Endangers birds? I just checked and I don’t seem to have any problem giving them the bird. There. Settled. No problem with birds. ,,!,.
If they’re missing mallards in California it’s because they’ve all moved here to Michigan........
This is absolute fact. The white elephants known as Solar and Wind Power will be sold to the more gullible among us as the ultimate solutions to the “Global Warming” crisis. Solar power plants and wind turbines kill thousands of birds every year. Hence, climate change threatens many bird species.
I remember when environmentalist said the Least Tern would disappear if they built homes in South Orange County and in West San Fernando Valley. Today those Least Terns are thriving because the homes eliminated one of the greatest threats to the birds, the coyote. Now there are more of those birds than ever before
And I’m sure those folks won’t let being wrong get in the way of their feelings of self-righteousness.
Because of ‘climate change’ we must erect thousands of windmills and cover thousands of acres with mirrors for solar. Birds chopped to pieces or fried to a crisp in their hundreds of thousands. So, yeah, I guess ‘climate change’ threatens birds.
Some species, unable to change, may become extinct.
When I was a grad student, if you used words like "could" or "may" in a research paper, you flunked...period. The reason is because those words are consistent with any outcome. This piece of crap is loaded with tenuous conclusions that simply aren't supported by the facts.
Think of all the energy we could save if we just released flocks of chicken over the solar mirror farms—KFC adn Chick-Fil-A could clean up!!!
If the birds are too stupid to adjust to the fluctuations that are naturally occurring, they deserve to go extinct. However, the eco-a** LIBs should stop shredding birds with their wind turbines and frying them with their idiotic solar farms.
Remember when we were going to make the Canada Goose extinct so we put them on the endangered list? Now they’re worse than flying rats. You can’t walk near a pond without sliding into it because of the goose crap.
The Eastern Bluebird is becoming the dominant species on our little farm.
Back in the 1970’s I was given a subscription to the National Audubon magazine by a relative. It had lots of pretty photos of wildlife. It also had articles of doom for every animal. Nothing has come to pass. As one gets older you see a pattern of the hucksters. No different then the guy with the sandwich board saying the “End is Near”.
And so the campaign is on, full-bore.
Yesterday, it was “the temperatures will rise to uninhabitable levels.” Today, it’s “the birds are gonna die!!!”
Yawn.
Actually, there’s something a bit more nefarious at hand than the guy with the sandwich board.
Liberals must keep the idea of a doomed earth as an issue, but it is also absolutely imperative that they provide the “salvatation” route of “you’re a good person for caring about it, and for supporting those who want to do something about it, like destroy our way of life”.
How are the species threatened when there has been no actual warming for 18 years?
lesson up.
climate change is real because this whacked out weather of cooling during global warming proves it...
and to prevent more warming and drastic weather we need to rely on sustainable energy like solar and wind...
turbines are needed to provide 1/20th of the necessary power to just maintain the charge in my prius...
turbines kill birds, namely the condor, eagle and thousands of other species... erego, climate change endangers birds, duh...
consider this settled science.
