CLICK to hear birds.. There are 391 New Brunswick bird species currently accepted by the New Brunswick Bird Records Committee. The following list of these birds is given by English name (American Ornithologists' Union), French name (Commission internationale des noms français des oiseaux), scientific name (American Ornithologists' Union), and also the status code from the 1985 Checklist of New Brunswick Birds. If the status has changed since 1985, an updated code assigned by David Christie is given in square brackets [ ]. The Grand Manan Bird list stands at 363 bird species (with two not yet recognized by NBBRC and one a probable escapee, indicated by red notation - not recognized by NBBRC). All species in dark blue type have been seen in the Grand Manan Archipelago and New Brunswick. Those not seen in the Grand Manan Archipelago but seen in New Brunswick are in teal green type. The codes apply to New Brunswick as a whole and may not reflect the situation in the Grand Manan Archipelago. Breeding status is where differences usually occur.
