Caracas: the citty of birds

Venezuela is the sixth country in the world with the greatest diversity of birds, with 1420 species. Its capital city, Caracas, is full of parks and green areas that serve as a refuge for many species of birds, including many macaws, hummingbirds, tanagers, and many other species. However, it is worrying that this diversity of birds is decreasing more and more, probably due to the decrease in green areas. For this reason it is necessary to study the behavior of urban birds and the effect of human disturbances on them.
