Why Do Birds Migrate? How Does Climate Change Affect Birds?

There are so many different kinds of birds that you can spot in Lincoln Park and in Chicago. In this episode of Curious By Nature, Marjorie is learning about a few of the common birds we see around the Nature Museum with help from our bird guide Geoff Williamson from the Chicago Ornithological Society. He's also sharing where you can spot birds in the city, some reasons birds migrate, how climate change impacts birds, and how you can help keep migrating birds safe.
