List of birds of Dry Tortugas National Park information
This is a comprehensive listing of the bird species recorded in Dry Tortugas National Park, which is in the U.S. state of Florida. This list is based on one published by the National Park Service (NPS) that as of February 2004 contained 281 species.[1] Of them, 131 are occasionally observed, 11 are rarely observed, 23 are known or possible breeders, five have been introduced to North America, and one is extinct, all as defined below.
This list is presented in the taxonomic sequence of the Check-list of North and Middle American Birds, 7th edition through the 63rd 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 NPS checklist notes the abundance of each species by season. These status codes have been used to annotate some species; those without a tag are typically observed at least 11 times in at least one season.
(O) Occasionally observed - a species found one to five times in the season with the most records
(R) Rarely observed - a species found six to 10 times in the season with the most records
(B) Breeding - a species known to breed in the park
(B?) Possibly breeding - a species whose breeding status is unknown
(I) Introduced - a species that has been introduced to North America by the actions of humans, either directly or indirectly, and has become established in Florida
(E) Extinct - a recent bird that no longer exists
