Woodpigeons would seem likeliest for roosting in urban trees. Feral Pigeons ARE wildlife, and in some places (City Centres etc) may be the most obvious/visible wildlife. Humans domesticated the species (Rock Dove), and some of them seem to have decided they don't fancy that, so have gone back to their original wild state though instead of cliffs they tend to use buildings as nest sites. If they are a nuisance then just as with gulls look to humans as the real problem. Some of them are worse than others.</p></blockquote><p></p>
