About 430 species of birds have been found in Wales. Red kites and ospreys are some "signature species" of Wales. Dippers, choughs, puffins, guillemots, razorbills, short-eared owls, Manx shearwaters, whimbrel and plovers are also common. Montagu's harrier ("Circus pygargus"), a rare species in Britain, has several nesting places in Wales. Red grouse ("Lagopus lagopus scotica"), once a common species, has reduced population dramatically due to human hunting. Red grouse can be found at the extreme north part of Wales.
