The current design of Delhi parks leads to bird decline
Parks in Delhi are being planted almost exclusively with Ashoka trees and palm species. These are not suitable for most birds. By redesigning the parks we can bring back many bird species that are not seen frequently. A combination of native trees, bushes, climbers and local grass varieties can immensely help this process. Habitat ecology should be adopted by making even small green patches interactive. A complete overhaul of horticultural practices is needed.
