Abstract
•Bird diversity in new housing developments which retained remnant trees.•More birds were observed on streets that had retained remnant trees.•Retaining more trees increased the bird diversity on vegetated streets.•Streets with retained mature trees had similar species composition to urban parks.•We recommend retaining large trees in new developments to help increase bird diversity.
