Urban Ecology
Study of the ecosystems, animal and plant communities, soils and microclimates found within an urban landscape.
Parks are important for many organisms, such as song birds, while birds of prey (the kestrel being a notable example) find ample food in the wasteland around estates and offices. Mammals, including foxes and badgers, are regular visitors, especially if there is an undisturbed corridor penetrating into the town, such as a disused railway.
