Perfect Bush-crow and Swallow habitat in Ethiopia. Credit: Andrew Bladon The White-tailed Swallow, Hirundo megaensis, and Ethiopian Bush-crow, Zavattariornis Stresemann, live in 'climatic lifeboats' with their small ranges restricted on all sides by temperature level as well as rains patterns. Also, under moderate climate warming, simulations predict a severe loss of ideal environment for these...
