Cold, Rain, and Climate Change: Why Baby Birds Are Losing the Fight to Survive
Sixty years of data from more than 80,000 wild great tits in the UK reveal a troubling pattern: cold snaps and heavy rain can stunt nestling growth and slash their odds of surviving to adulthood. The culprit, researchers say, is a changing climate that is making extreme weather events both more frequent and more severe.
The findings, published March 11 in Global Change Biology by scientists at the University of Oxford, draw on records from Wytham Woods in Oxfordshire, one of the longest-running wildlife monitoring programs in the world. By pairing individual bird data with detailed daily weather records across six decades, the team was able to isolate precisely when extreme weather hits hardest during a nestling’s brief but critical development window.
The research pinpoints two weather extremes as especially damaging, and their timing matters enormously. According to the study, extreme cold during the first week after hatching is particularly detrimental, a period when chicks have no feathers and cannot yet regulate their own body temperature. Rather than converting food into growth, hatchlings in a cold snap must burn energy simply staying warm, often falling behind in body mass in ways that can never be fully recovered.
This is a perfect example as to why they changed it from anthropogenic global warming to anthropogenic climate change: it allows what morphed into a doomsday cult to blame everything on Mankind. Hot? Your fault. Cold? Also your fault. And we can fix this with a tax and removing your freedom, liberty, and life choices.
Your fault !
Today’s USA avg gas price?
$3.88
Hitting hard on the top 3 states paying the most yearly
Montana Wyoming and Indiana
Cali drivers pay just about the national yearly avg. But it affects them less because 20% higher incomes
Yes, Johnny-the 20% higher incomes that are eaten away from other taxes, fees, ect
Cali real estate prices are high because that is where most people want to live.
Free market shoes what people are willing to spend to live their.
Taxes are high but do are venues. Free 4 year college for all families earning less than 100k
Cali drive’s drive the newest cars despite all those costs you listed.
Most expensive homes. Most expensive cars. Doesn’t seem like they are living in poverty
Oh yeah and they live longer than those red states
Today’s news: “Electric car registrations in US plunge 41% as gas-powered vehicles gain traction”. Oh, no……
The increasingly tedious William once again trots out his canard that global warming was changed to climate change at some point to widen the blame!!!
Note that the IPCC, the Intergovennmental Panel on CLIMATE CHANGE was formed in 1988. In 1988.
Global warming (now over 2 degrees Fahrenheit and still increasing!) is intensifying climate changes. Duh.
But no, the Denier Class distracts, denies and dissembles. We get it. You distrust science; hate restraint; duck criticism; dodge responsibility.
ELLIE
One more time. No one is deny that the climate changes. Been doing that since day 1.
THE ISSUE US “CAUSE.”
Try real hard and address that.
ONE MORE TIME
James please tell us why YOU think the climate is changing
Lewy Body (look it up),
We know why the Earth is warming, the cause of climate change.
When we burn fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas), hydrocarbons combine with oxygen yielding heat, H20 and CO2!! CO2 is a greenhouse gas. It absorbs infrared radiation (IR or heat!), vibrates and releases the heat! Over the past century and a half atmospheric CO2 has increased 50% (from 280 ppm to 420 ppm) and continues to increase. And it stays around a long, long time!
But relax. These facts are falling on deaf (and selfish) ears (or “ear” in King Don’s case). Nothing is being done. Let the next generations worry about. King Coal, Omnipotent Oil and Glorious Gas is our future. Our grandchildren will use AI to solve everything, thanks to Zuck and Elon!!
Nothing being done except by the stupid countries like England and Germany, to name a few, that are rushing into “net zero”, which won’t change the weather one bit…
Stupid “leaders” like trump, to name the stupidest, understand that the worst is yet to come and he’s got a couple years to live at best…
So relax. Yes, even if the Earth went “net zero” tomorrow, the Earth would continue to warm until the CO2 level dropped significantly, which could take decades or a century. It might only slowly warm another degree or two F, before very slowly dropping.
The accelerating, year-over-year warming would stop and existing atmospheric CO2
would keep temperatures high for hundreds of years. Yay!! Relax.
The retard has spoken again about nothing he knows about.
And what does Blob know about? LOL
Why yes, “extreme cold” caused by….global warming! “Extreme weather more severe and more frequent..”
Except statistically that’s not happening
The highly unnatural increase in CO2 brings the current level to over 425 ppm, the highest in the past 10 million years. The human species is under 1 million years old. Human civilization is only some 12,000 years old (the Holocene).
Mar. 18, 2026 = 429.33 ppm
The climate luddites chuckle that ‘global warming’ can result in local ‘extreme cold’!! Try to understand how large the Earth is! Our poles, Arctic and Antarctic stay pretty durn cold, don’t they?
-40 F is pretty durn cold, but so is -20 F! The 2.0 to 2.3 F increase in the mean surface temperature is a worldwide average! Mean means average! It is not evenly distributed.
Jl
You agree that the global temp is rising
I believe it is caused by greenhouse gases
Why do you think it has gone up 1 F in last to years.?
As I’ve said here many times, Johnny, one alternate theory is increased solar radiation due to a decrease in clouds
“For more than 20 years, NASA instruments in space have tracked a growing imbalance in Earth’s solar energy budget, with more energy entering than leaving the planet.
Much of that imbalance can be pinned on humanity’s greenhouse gases emissions, which trap heat in the atmosphere. But explaining the rest has been a challenge. The loss of reflective ice, exposing darker ground and water that absorb more heat, isn’t enough to explain the deficit. “Nobody can get a number that’s even close,” says George Tselioudis, a climate scientist at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
But Tselioudis and his colleagues now think they can explain the growing gap with evidence collected by a remarkably long-lived satellite. They find that the world’s reflective cloud cover has shrunk in the past 2 decades by a small but tangible degree, allowing more light in and boosting global warming.
Climate scientists now need to figure out what’s causing these cloud changes.”

Why would NASA “cultists”, “hoaxers” and “scammers” suggest that thinning clouds might contribute to warming?
A theory that is simply not accepted as being able to account for the very rapid warming as most of that warming is cancelled by an increase by radiational cooling .
Try again please
The Science Denier Cult always look for a simple explanation to support their biases.
Evidence is optional.
Here we go again-why couldn’t the alternate theory account for “rapid warming”? You have no answer for that. And as asked many times, “rapid” compared to what? Global thermometer records don’t go back far enough to compare to today. And to repeat myself again, “rapid” (or extremely slow) is irrelevant. It would be the alleged effects of the rate change that would matter
The alternate theory COULD account for warming! Where’s the evidence?
Yes I AM WORRIED ABOUT BABY BIRDS
I have been feeding a pair of breeding red tailed hawks that land on om AC unit. The female no longer comes. I believe she is nesting.
Coincidentally red tailed hawks are the sports mascot of my school LAGCC
“Evidence optional”. As is verifiable cause-effect evidence for the agw theory. Sorry
You appear to not understand the evidence concept. Of course there is evidence supporting the AGW theory. Adding “verifiable” is like putting a hat on a horse.
Science Deniers no longer deny that: The oceans, atmosphere and surface are warming.
What is the evidence for AGW?
That CO2 absorbs and releases IR is evidence.
That CO2 has increased from 280 ppm to 428 ppm is evidence.
That the increase in CO2 is from burning fossil fuels is evidence.
That the stratosphere is cooling is evidence.
