Learning Birds Check-list

This application provides information on each bird species in the ABA (American Birding Association) check-list version 8.0.3 August 2018. The data is based on the AOS (American Ornithological Society) 59th supplement checklist of North and Middle America birds. Information provided on each species consists of family or group name, family scientific name, common name, scientific name, ABA code and a four character alpha code. The four character alpha code is determined by a set of basic rules. These rules are like the ones used to determine The Institute for Bird Populations codes not the USGS (United States Geological Survey) bird banding codes. The application provides different means to find information on each bird species. By browsing in taxonomy order of bird species. Sorting bird species by common name, alpha code or scientific name.
