The purpose of this paper is to study hazardous birds around airport. The study is based upon eight sites around the airport in 5-kilometer radius of the airport. The sites were University road, Tambvano Mor,Tehkal, Gora qabristan, Mall Road, Bara Road, Old bara Road, Abdara Road. As per the Airport Officials the concerned species were Kites, House crows, Pigeon, Common Mayna, House Martin, Black Drongo, Red Vented bulbul, Sparrow. Mostly sites were observed with dominant features including hotels, commercial areas, open garbage dumps, butcher shops etc. The birds were observed around airport housing societies, buildings, tall tress which can create possible potential threats to aircraft operation. House crow and kites were distributed in all sites. The Population density of eight concerned species were as: Kites (45%), Crow(20%), Red Vented Bulbul(10%), Pigeon(6%), Dove(9%), Sparrow(4%), Drongo(4%), House Martin (2%). The roost of crow and kite were seen in Mullbery, Eucalyptus, White siris, Dalbergia Sisso, Populus, Black Siris. Kites and crows’ nests were observed in tall trees. Dove and pigeons were seen resting over telephone towers, fences, building etc. Kites and crows were observed on boards and logos at the top of airport building. Concerned authorities mostly focus inside the airport than off airfield. The outside premises of the airport should not be ignored. Most of the sites are directly under flight path. Result indicate that habitat near airport is highly conducive for birds and can be serious threat to aircraft operations. The study will be useful for airport management for outside bird management program.
