This list of birds of Alabama contains species documented in the U.S. state of Alabama, as accepted by the Bird Records Committee (BRC) of the Alabama Ornithological Society. As of January, 2022, there were 452 species on the official list.[1] Of them, 161 are considered accidental, 13 of which are further considered "Category B" as defined below. Six species were introduced to the state, three are extinct, and one which is listed as extirpated might also be extinct. Birds that are considered probable escapees, although they may have been sighted flying free, are not included. Two additional species have been added from another source.
This list is presented in the taxonomic sequence of the Check-list of North and Middle American Birds, 7th edition through the 62nd Supplement, published by the American Ornithological Society (AOS).[2] 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.
The following status codes have been used to annotate some species:
(A) Accidental - species for which the BRC requests documentation
(B) Category B - species with acceptable documentation but no physical evidence
(I) Introduced - a species that has been introduced to Alabama by the actions of humans, either directly or indirectly
(E) Extinct - a recent bird that no longer exists
