Urban environments present unique challenges and opportunities for wildlife, and this project explores how the distinct climates of Manhattan and Albany shape the population and distribution patterns of Rock Pigeons (*Columba livia*). By analyzing sighting frequency data from *eBird* and correlating it with monthly temperature patterns, this study uncovers how Manhattan’s milder, more stable climate, enhanced by the urban heat island effect, supports a year-round pigeon population. In contrast, Albany’s colder winters and more pronounced seasonal changes lead to declines in pigeon sightings during harsher months, emphasizing the role of climate in shaping urban species distribution. This research highlights the adaptability of pigeons to varying urban pressures while shedding light on their vulnerabilities to climate and resource availability.
