Abstract
This study has already been implemented on the surrounding area of communication metrological system at the International Airport of Sebha in the south of Libya. This project studies the structure of the vegetation- the trees and bushes in particular. In this study, the calculations have already been made on the varieties or species of birds which are existing in that area during the studies. Also the classification and varieties of vegetation which the birds favored and used for nesting is made. The results showed that this area is inhabited by the birds which always exist in homes. These birds are called (Passer domesticus, Streptopelia phoenlcopila, Streptopelia turtur, Oenanthe leucopyga, Apus apus, Columba livia and Motacilla alba alba). And as for the trees and bushes, they can be classified as Dodonea viscosa, Eucalyptus sp, Nerium oleander, Tamarix sp, Phoenix dactylifero, Ornamental palm, Acacia radiana, Pinus helefensis.The study has already shown that some of these birds which appeared in the field of study during the spring season and the beginning of summer as it is with the Passer domesticus. Some of the other birds appear at the end of summer and beginning of autumn. They are the Streptopelia turtur, Apus apus and Motacilla alba alba . As for the Streptopelia phoenlcopila , Oenanthe leucopyga and Columba livia birds are found in the whole year. The Eucalyptus sp plants are the favorable ones for nesting for the majority of the birds. Whereas the Dodonea viscosa and Nerium oleander have not been taken as the place for birds to make their nest whereas the Acacia radiana, Tamarix sp and Phoenix sp trees are found to be the place where birds can stand and rest.
