目前尚不清楚在途中的秋季候鸟（8月至10月）是否可能受到飓风的直接或间接影响。2005年9月24日，飓风丽塔在路易斯安那州海岸造成了严重破坏，大片地区的树木被刮倒，无脊椎动物的栖息地和候鸟赖以生存的水果（例如，树冠叶、藤蔓缠结、附生植物、落叶和多年生植物物种的灌木丛）。人们对飓风对野生动物食物资源的这种短暂影响知之甚少，但这些影响可能对某些野生动物物种产生长期影响。
It is not known whether en route fall migratory birds (August–October) are likely to suffer more from direct or secondary effects of hurricanes. On September 24, 2005, Hurricane Rita wreaked havoc on Louisiana’s coast by toppling trees over vast areas and by stripping away microhabitats that harbor the invertebrates and produce the fruits upon which migrant landbirds depend (e.g., canopy foliage, vine tangles, epiphytes, leaf litter, and thickets of perennial plant species). Such transient effects of a hurricane on wildlife food resources are poorly understood, but these effects may have longterm consequences for some wildlife species.
