If shifting migration phenology compensated for the impact of a changing environmental condition, we expected no long‐term trend in that condition on passage dates, even if a significant trend in that condition occurred within the passage periods, and that the 95% credible interval (CI) for the difference between these two trends would not overlap zero.

Shifts in avian migration phenologies do not compensate for changes to conditions en route in spring and fall.
