List of birds of Everglades National Park facts for kids
Everglades National Park in Florida, USA, is a special place where many different kinds of birds live. This list tells you about the birds that have been seen there. It's based on information from the National Park Service, updated on June 21, 2022.
There are about 375 different bird species on this list! Some of these birds were brought to North America by people (we call these "introduced" species). A few species used to live in Florida but are now gone from the state, though they still exist elsewhere (these are "extirpated"). Sadly, one species on the list is completely gone from the world (it's "extinct").
The birds are listed in a scientific order, just like how scientists group animals. The names of the birds and their families come from important bird checklists.
Here are some special tags you'll see next to some bird names:
- (I) Introduced: This means people brought this bird to North America, either on purpose or by accident.
- (e) Extirpated: This bird used to live in Florida but doesn't anymore. It still lives in other places.
- (E) Extinct: This bird no longer exists anywhere in the world.
