How long do birds in the wild live?

Question

Specifically, Chickadees and Titmice. also, Cardinals, Blue Jays and Robins.

Answer 1

Chickadees average about 2-3 years.  Oldest on record was 12 years old.

Titmice average about 3 years also...but have been known to live up to 7-12 years.

Cardinals average 5-7 years, oldest record was 15 years.

American Robins are a little different, most die within their first  year of life..if they make it past this critical point, they live on an average for about 5-6 years, but the oldest record was

13 years old.

Answer 2

idk like 10 yrs? i have a tame indoor bird and she can live up 2 25 with proper care!

Answer 3

not too long.to be honest,i don't know about all those birds you mentioned but i think i know some facts..

birds in the wild live only for a short period of time than their antural lifespan.this may be caused by different factors:

predators.some predators feed on birds and their eggs.this causes the most nuber of deaths in birds.they mostly live in a colony so they are easily spotted by predators.this shortens their life span becuase they are not only eaten but they are also stressed by always having to fly away in case of danger.this may seriously hurt them,if not kill them.

humans:some people tend to examine the birds by killing them.this also adds to the stress of the birds as they must fly away almost every second of their life.

so in short,they don not live that long.many threats are waiting for them in thw wild.they tend to develop their full potnetials of life span when they are domesticated.

i hope i helped!

Answer 4

small passerine birds tend to be on the short lived side of the straw.. a guess of anywhere from 5-15 years is a good range depending on species

birds such as chickadees living shorter lives than say the blue jay

Answer 5

5 to 12 years but some birds beat that and live longer. In captivity they live 6 to 15 years.
