context_page_description: This list of birds of Rhode Island is a comprehensive listing of all the bird species confirmed in the U.S. state of Rhode Island. Unless otherwise noted, the list is that of the Rhode Island Avian Records Committee. As of July 2019, there are 431 species on the list, of which 175 have nested. In addition, 109 are considered vagrants, six have been introduced to North America, and two are extinct. The state's review list contains 127 species.
  This list is presented in the taxonomic sequence of the Check-list of North and Middle American Birds, 7th edition through the 61st Supplement, published by the American Ornithological Society. Common and scientific names are also those of the Check-list, except that the common names of families are from the Clements taxonomy because the AOS list does not include them.
  Unless otherwise noted, all species listed below are considered to occur regularly in Rhode Island as permanent residents, summer or winter visitors, or migrants. These tags are used to annotate some species:
  Breeding - confirmed nesting record within Rhode Island
  (I) Introduced - a species introduced to North America by the actions of humans, either directly or indirectly
