The actual unedited title of this is

Migratory birds can be taught to adjust to climate change, study shows

(Shame on op for editorializing this title)

The birds didn't "adapt." They were captured, put in a van, and driven 600km north. The birds don't do this by themselves.

here I am, imagining a kidnapping van full of birds being taken to an undisclosed location by masked ornithologists
