“…Many studies have considered the impacts of climate variability and change on birds ( Dunn and Møller, 2019 ; McKechnie, 2019 ; Pearce-Higgins and Green, 2014 ). Impacts directly attributable to adverse weather and changing climate regimes include higher risk of mortality ( Bourne et al , 2020b ; McKechnie and Wolf, 2010 ; Sharpe et al , 2019 ), reduced breeding success ( Bourne et al , 2020a ; Conrey et al , 2016 ; Cruz-McDonnell and Wolf, 2016 ; Cunningham et al , 2013 ; Skagen and Yackel Adams, 2012 ), compromised body condition and immunocompetence ( du Plessis et al , 2012 ; Edwards et al , 2015 ; Gardner et al , 2018 ; Wingfield et al , 2017 ; Xie et al , 2017 ), declining populations ( Riddell et al , 2019 ; Saino et al , 2011 ), range changes ( Hockey et al , 2011 ; Huntley, 2019 ) and potentially maladaptive behavioural adjustments to foraging ( Bladon et al , 2019 ; Cooper et al , 2019 ; Cunningham et al , 2015 , 2021 ; Funghi et al , 2019 ; Pattinson and Smit, 2017 ), parental care ( Bourne et al , 2021 ; Carroll et al , 2018 ; Clauser and McRae, 2017 ; van de Ven, 2017 ; Wiley and Ridley, 2016 ) and migration ( Dunn et al , 2010 ; Samplonius et al , 2018 ).…”
