Chapter 3: Biodiversity and the Restoration of the Urban Forest Ecosystem -- Figure 19.2. Area sensitive birds, such as certain types of owls (19.1) may have their diversity reduced with fragmentation and a reduction in core area. However, habitat generalist birds, such as common sparrows (19.2) may be favored in a patchy environment.
