The present study was conducted to examine the temporal variations that
took place in the bird richness and diversity in the Rawalpindi division of
Punjab during 2007-2015. Secondary sources of data were utilized for the
study. The district-wise data for 12 bird species was obtained from the
Zoological Survey of Pakistan, Islamabad and Arid Agriculture University,
Rawalpindi from 2007-2015. The collected data was arranged and
tabulated in Microsoft Excel 15 and SPSS 22 and were analyzed for
linear regression. The most common bird species found were House
Sparrow, Common Quail and House Crow. The declining trend was seen
in Shikra, Chukor, and Bank Myna with a more than 50 % reduction in
their population during 2007-2015. The results of linear regression
showed a strong relationship between bird decline and time. The study
suggests a detailed analysis of the possible environmental and
anthropogenic factors which played a role in the decline of bird richness
