Ranges are based on the IOC World Bird List for that species unless otherwise noted. Population estimates are of the number of mature individuals and are taken from the IUCN Red List. This list follows the taxonomic treatment (designation and order of species) and nomenclature (scientific and common names) of version 13.2 of the IOC World Bird ...
The California quail is the official state bird of California. This list of birds of California is a comprehensive listing of all the bird species seen naturally in the U.S. state of California as determined by the California Bird Records Committee (CBRC). [1] Additional accidental and hypothetical species have been added from different sources.
The average global population of all mature birds is estimated to be on the order of 100 billion individuals. [1] [2] [3] The total population including younglings is somewhat higher during the breeding season of each species. [3] This list is incomplete, because experts have not estimated all bird numbers.
The goal of the project was to produce an illustrated guide to all of the birds of the world; its first iteration was in the 17-volume Handbook of the Birds of the World, published by Lynx Edicions over the course of 22 years, from 1992 to 2014.
