Which consequence results when a bird's wing loading increases due to temporarily saturated plumage?

💡 Explanation

Increased wing loading elevates the required lift. Insufficient lift generates a stall. Water adds weight. Therefore stall speed control margins reduce because the stall angle remains fixed, rather than more lift and faster speed being able to compensate completely.
