The Nuisance of Urban Wild Birds

This book exams various areas of nuisance urban birds create to human inhabitants in some of our cities. However birds are morphologically beautiful attractive and loved by humans. Additionally their ecological role in the wild environment specifically the rainforest where pollination and regeneration of some floral species partially depend on their feeding behavior has contributed immensely in ecosystem balance in most biomes on earth. Moreover their value in research and the tourism industry has transformed the economy of many nations through bird-watching programs. Unfortunately the feeding behavior of some bird species on crop-lands and their social activities on city dumping sites are some of the conflict areas with humans. This book explores the social behavior of urban bird species on urban crop-farms and solid waste dumping sites hence the implication of these social activities on human health and its economy in these cities.
