The list below contains both species and selected distinctive subspecies (more on subspecies in Virginia here) that have been documented in the Commonwealth
of Virginia. In some cases, code numbers appear in parentheses following the names of these species or
subspecies. These numbers refer to the Category in which the birds are placed by the Virginia Avian Records
Committee. To read the definitions of these Categories, please refer to the Committee's by-laws. A
separate list of those species believed to have occurred historically (but not conclusively documented by specimen) in
Virginia follows at the end of the main list. If you have seen a locally rare species, it is probably included on the Committee's
Review List; the Committee would be happy to review documentation on any of these species or on
any not listed below. If your web-browser is having difficulty displaying the list below, try viewing it with a different browser.
