Lassen Volcanic National Park is a fascinating ecological landscape that hosts nearly 100 breeding birds, many of which are neotropical migrants that winter in Central or South America. The park鈥檚 climate is projected to improve for frequently-sighted warblers such as MacGillivray鈥檚 and Wilson鈥檚; however, it will likely worsen for migrant Song and Golden-crowned Sparrows. Raptors from Golden Eagles to Northern Harriers to Cooper鈥檚 Hawks could also have trouble as the park鈥檚 climate changes. By and large, bird populations in the park will continue to find suitable conditions, so it will be incumbent upon land managers to reduce disturbance and maintain as much suitable habitat as possible.
