This NetLogo model simulates the movement and foraging behavior of 20 bird species (classified as urban avoiders or utilizers) across a 20×20m grid landscape representing southern Bogotá, Colombia. Agents follow an optimal foraging strategy (90% of the time) or move randomly (10%), gaining energy from land-cover-dependent food sources and dying if energy falls below their basal metabolic rate. The model compares two landscape scenarios — current land cover (2016) and a proposed scenario incorporating the ‘Media Luna del Sur’ ecological corridor from Bogotá’s 2022–2035 Land Use Plan (POT) — to evaluate whether the proposed green infrastructure improves functional connectivity for avian biodiversity across the urban matrix. Outputs include cumulative patch visitation counts, exported as raster files, used to generate connectivity heatmaps.
