This is a list of the bird species recorded in Norway. The avifauna of Norway included a total of 547 species and a species pair recorded in the wild by October 2022 according to the Norwegian Ornithological Society (Norsk Ornitologisk Forening, NOF) with supplemental additions from Avibase.[1] Of the 539 entries listed here, 4 have been introduced by humans.
This list's taxonomic treatment (designation and sequence of orders, families and species) and nomenclature (English and scientific names) are those of The Clements Checklist of Birds of the World, 2022 edition.[2] The Norwegian (bokmål) names in parentheses are from the NOF list.
The following tags have been used to highlight some categories of occurrence as noted by the NOF. The notes of population status such as "endangered" apply to the world population and are from Bird Checklists of the World.[3]
(A) Accidental - a species that rarely or accidentally occurs in Norway
(I) Introduced - a species introduced directly or indirectly to Norway and which has an established population
(Ex) Extirpated - a species which no longer occurs in Norway, but other populations still exist elsewhere
(D) Category D - species (17) for which there is reasonable doubt as to the wild origin of reported birds
