The impact of urbanization on biodiversity is concerned on the relationship between biodiversity and urban ecosystem. The aim of this paper is to investigate abundance of urban biodiversity and its benefits to the urban community.

It is recorded that there are decreasing number of birds species such as Zebra Dove and Magpie Robin. There are new species identified in 2014 the Black Crowned Night Heron which are rarely found in urban area. The study presents and empirical survey on bird species. The declining of green space in urban affected the bird species population. It is suggested that bird conservation in urban context should be emphasized.
