The main objective of this study was to assess the influence surrounding forest and agricultural landscapes on bird communities within cities. Using point count method, we collected data analyzed species richness relative abundance breeding birds. We found differences in birds between urbanized areas surrounded by forests landscapes. However, both types significantly differed terms community structure. highest abundances were observed city parks cities landscapes, while lowest detected highly areas. Cities exhibited an additional nine compared other ecological grouping revealed that had higher typical species, such as Great Tit (Parus major), Eurasian Blue (Cyanistes caeruleus), Common Chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs), European Pied Flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca), whereas characterized adapted open or semi-open with specific feeding nesting behaviors. presence specialist composition urban enhances biological diversity, which is crucial for stability ecosystems communities.
