National Audubon Climate Watch
The current target species in California are Mountain and Western Bluebird; Pygmy, Red-breasted, and White-breasted Nuthatch; American and Lesser Goldfinch; and Spotted Towhee. Climate Watch focuses on these species because they are easy to identify, have an enthusiastic constituency, and Audubon’s climate models for these species offer strong predictions for range shifts to test.
