The Birds of Italy

CHECK LIST OF BIRDS OF ITALY

Connecting continental Europe to Africa, Italy acts like a bridge both for trans-Saharan migrants and for Mediterranean specialities, making birding much more interesting than you would normally expect.

The Italian check list embraces 557 species (2022), ranking fourth in Europe after the UK, France and Spain. 

The Italian check list published on Avocetta 2019
