It is said that when the world finally comes to an end it is the creatures of the air and water that shall survive since all the land creatures will perish. The water creatures will not just survive but they shall flourish and the air borne shall remain in small numbers but shall survive. The logic behind the deductions being simple, the world will end due to global warming, the polar caps shall melt and the land shall be covered by water. That explains the survival of the aqua life and the air borne will have to sustain on fish and some tiny bits of land here and there, so those birds who are strong enough to go through that phase shall live on. The best part is that most migratory birds pass the test of sustenance and shall live on.
