This is a list of the bird species recorded in the Bahamas. The avifauna of the Bahamas include a total of 386 species, according to Bird Checklists of the World (Avibase) as of July 2023.[1] Of them, seven are endemic, 21 have been introduced by humans, and 212 are rare or accidental. Two species listed are extinct (including one of the endemics) and two have been extirpated.
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 following tags have been used to highlight several categories of occurrence.
(A) Accidental - a species that rarely or accidentally occurs in the Bahamas
(E) Endemic - a species endemic to the Bahamas
(I) Introduced - a species introduced to the Bahamas as a consequence, direct or indirect, of human actions
(Ex) Extinct - a species which has ceased to exist
(Er) Extirpated - a species that no longer occurs in the Bahamas although populations exist elsewhere
