The Scottish crossbill is also under threat.
THE distribution, numbers and behaviour of birds in the UK, including many in Scotland, are altering because of a changing climate, according to a new report.
The State of the UK’s Birds 2017 (SUKB) – the one-stop shop for all the latest results from bird surveys and monitoring studies – this year highlights how many of the UK’s species across the four countries are already being affected by climate change, responding to UK average summer temperatures having increased by nearly one degree centigrade since the 1980s.
