The Future of Chicagoland’s Birds in a Changing Climate @ Heller Nature Center | Highland Park | Illinois | United States

Warming temperatures, increasing precipitation and other climate changes are already impacting the flora and fauna of the upper Midwest.  The Field Museum’s Doug Stotz will discuss how these shifts are changing the timing of bird migration and breeding, the wintering and breeding range of birds in the Chicago region, the environmental factors influenced by climate to which birds may be responding, and strategies for helping nature adapt to climate change.
