What does Jeremiah 8:7 mean?

Even the stork in the sky knows when to migrate; doves, swifts, and thrushes know when it’s time to come back. But my people don’t know what the Lord wants from them. Jeremiah 8:7 - Modern Text Bible

(Even birds know when to return home, but God’s people can’t recognize when it’s time to come back to Him.)
