Survival of the fittest I always say.
I’m sure these “experts” also feel less Coal produced electricity and more wind turbines is part of the answer.
Humans are more important than birds. They’re also probably birds that we don’t even eat.

Please!!!!
I hate Canadian Geese!!!
I hope they all die!
Climate Change Extinction Threatens Thousands of Academic and Political Gravy Trains, Common Sense Says.
What does miss pigtails say? (less than NPC already)
These studies always begin with “If” and then “Then.” The “If” factor can be based on anything. With that, the researcher can then do an analysis of the impact while collecting $50,000 for the study.

I truly believe I saw an ‘ivory-billed’ woodpecker in SC around 1977. We lived near a cedar swamp area. Called Audubon and they agreed with my descriptions of length, markings and flight pattern.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Thought extinct for more than 60 years, the ivory-billed woodpecker has become the species most people associate with extinction in the Americas. The huge appetite for lumber to rebuild after the American Civil War led to the destruction of Ivory-billed habitat and its primary food source, beetle larvae. Demand from collectors, including ornithologists, increased as it became more rare, speeding its elimination. The bird was last seen in 1944.
In February 2004, a large woodpecker was seen by two kayakers in the Cache River National Wildlife Refuge in Arkansas and based on the evidence, including a two-second video clip, many believe C. principalis still exists. The sighting has stirred enough excitement to launch searches for this Lazarus species in Arkansas, Florida and Texas, coordinated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and state wildlife agencies. There is even a $50,000 USD reward for positive photographic evidence, offered by an anonymous donor. Ivory-billed habitat (swampy, bottomland hardwood forest) is rough terrain for those seeking the bird and so far no indisputable evidence has emerged to confirm its existence. Many experts think the 2004 sighting was of a pileated woodpecker, a bird of very similar appearance and size.
The possibility that one of the largest and most majestic of woodpecker species still survives is inspirational to some but as with many species whose habitat has been all but destroyed by human activity, any extant population is unlikely to recover to a viable level, if it even still exists at all.
Yeah those poorly producing energy generation windmills are killing off many, many birds.
Change the words “climate change” with “windmills” and they will be accurate.
Climate change threatens hundreds of North American bird species with extinction, study says
So build more wind turbines.
If that includes the one that poops on my car every day, I’ll take that as a win.
Birds won’t be able to “walk” north, wait....
Adapt or Die.
Uhhh, NO
IMMIGRATION DOES
More idiots, more loss of habitat
And they could give a Flying F abou “The Birds”
It’s ALL about them and their “Stuff” gotta have room for non English speaking Momma and kids, the old smokin cars, the cheap used boat, and the shed and garage to park their crap
I once wrote a major birding organization about immigration, their reply: “Interesting” and then about three paragraphs on the “absolute proof” of “climate change”
All the while asking for $$$ F them
Thank you. Always glad to see the master of this mess. The media’s true god.
Well,,, sort of.
The false claim of man made global warming has guilted nations into building literally thousands of 400 foot tall windmills that kill birds by the millions at a time. So yea, globull warming is killing birds indirectly.
Hey as long as it aint Chicken or Turkey:-)
