A professor at Durham University, Britain,Stephen Willis said that there is bad news for birds like the Whitethroat, a common farmland bird. Birds will face a big challenge, bigger than the Pleistocene era as temperatures rises and habitats change. Climate change will force birds migrating to Europe from Africa to log extra mileage and this could possibly bring devastating consequences.To complete a voyage that could be thousands of kilometres, birds have to fatten themselves up to twice their normal weight. Some even shrink their internal organs to become more fuel efficient. Additional distance definitely will takes its toll on the birds.Give our birds some thoughts!
