# List of birds of North America

The lists of birds in the light blue box below are divided by biological family. The lists are based on The AOS Check-list of North American Birds of the American Ornithological Society and The Clements Checklist of Birds of the World supplemented with checklists from Panama, Greenland, and Bermuda. It includes the birds of Greenland, Canada, the United States (excluding Hawaii), Mexico, Central America, Bermuda, and the West Indies.

## Taxonomy

The taxonomic treatment (designation and sequence of orders, families and species) and nomenclature (common and scientific names) used in the accompanying bird lists adheres to the conventions of the AOS's (2019) Check-list of North American Birds, the recognized scientific authority on the taxonomy and nomenclature of North America birds. The AOS's Committee on Classification and Nomenclature, the body responsible for maintaining and updating the Check-list, "strongly and unanimously continues to endorse the biological species concept (BSC), in which species are considered to be genetically cohesive groups of populations that are reproductively isolated from other such groups" (AOS 2019). The Sibley-Ahlquist taxonomy is an alternative phylogenetic arrangement based on DNA-DNA hybridization.
Unless otherwise noted, all species listed below are considered to occur regularly in North America as permanent residents, summer or winter residents or visitors, or migrants. The following codes are used to denote certain categories of species:
* (A) = Accidental occurrence based on one or two (rarely more) records, and unlikely to occur regularly.
* (E) = Extinct; a recent member of the avifauna that no longer exists.
* (Ex) = Extirpated; no longer occurs in area of interest, but other populations still exist elsewhere.
* (I) = Introduced population established solely as result of direct or indirect human intervention; synonymous with non-native and non-indigenous.
Conservation status - IUCN Red List of Threatened Species:
    EX - Extinct, EW - Extinct in the Wild
    CR - Critically Endangered, EN - Endangered, VU - Vulnerable
    NT - Near Threatened, LC - Least Concern
    (v. 2019, the data is current as of July 25, 2019
and Endangered Species Act:
    E - endangered, T - threatened
    XN, XE - experimental non essential or essential population
    E(S/A), T(S/A) - endangered or threatened due to similarity of appearance
    (including taxa not necessarily found in the USA, the data is current as of March 28, 2014

## Rails, gallinules and coots

Order: Gruiformes Family: Rallidae
Rallidae is a large family of small to medium-sized birds which includes the rails, crakes, coots and gallinules. The most typical family members occupy dense vegetation in damp environments near lakes, swamps or rivers. In general they are shy and secretive birds, making them difficult to observe. Most species have strong legs and long toes which are well adapted to soft uneven surfaces. They tend to have short, rounded wings and to be weak fliers.

Skimmers are a small family of tropical tern-like birds. They have an elongated lower mandible which they use to feed by flying low over the water surface and skimming the water for small fish.

## New World vultures

Order: Cathartiformes Family: Cathartidae
The New World vultures are not closely related to Old World vultures, but superficially resemble them because of convergent evolution. Like the Old World vultures, they are scavengers. However, unlike Old World vultures, which find carcasses by sight, New World vultures have a good sense of smell with which they locate carcasses.
