About World Bird Info
World Bird Info is an independent project dedicated to creating a comprehensive, accessible encyclopedia of the world's approximately 10,000 bird species. Our goal is to provide birders, students, educators, and nature enthusiasts with reliable information about every species — identification, range, behavior, song, and conservation status.
Our Vision
Birds are the most visible and most beloved wildlife on Earth. Yet comprehensive information about the world's species is scattered across scientific journals, regional field guides, and specialized databases. World Bird Info brings it together in one place, written for a general audience without sacrificing scientific accuracy.
What We're Building
- Species profiles for every recognized bird species
- Family overviews explaining the shared characteristics that link related species
- Regional guides highlighting the birds and birding opportunities of every major region
- Conservation updates tracking the status and threats facing the world's birds
- Birding resources for beginners and experienced birders alike
