Many birds live in towns and cities.
Pigeons, starlings and sparrows have all learned to live on roofs and window ledges of buildings, instead of trees, and often come down only to search for food. Also birds of prey, like hawks, come to live in cities - they eat rats and mice which live in human populated areas. And in some countries storks make nests on chimneys out of twigs, and swifts may nest under eaves of roofs. Lakes are often found in parks in cities, and in these lake you will often find water loving birds like swans and ducks. They nest on islands that usually can't be reached by people or predators.
