 A. There will be a reduction in the population size of one or both species.

Interspecific competition is an ecological competition which occurs between two distinct species which compete for the same type of resource. According to the competitive exclusion principle, no two species can have the same  ecological niche. The species which is more stronger and superior over the other receives the resources over the other. The other species will decline in number.

According to the given situation if the populations of birds in the same ecosystem begin to compete for the same food resource. There will be a reduction in the population size of one or both species due to the competitive exclusion principle.
