Share Your Bird Records
Your Bonaire bird records will help us better understand the status,
distribution, and abundance of the island's bird populations.
Now that you've seen so many of the
wonderful birds Bonaire has to offer, we would appreciate details
about them. This is to help track abundance and status of Bonaire’s
native birds as well as the island’s winterers, migrants,
and vagrants.
In a perfect world, you would send
us copies of your list of species and estimates (or actual counts)
from each individual site you visit on a particular day. But
the world is not perfect, so we would be grateful for any information
you can provide. We invite you to download
our checklist to help you compile your bird records.
We also encourage
you to snap photos of your rarities, for documentation. Don't
worry about getting a masterpiece (you've seen some of our photos
on this web site!) Just concentrate on getting the diagnostic
features. You can send those to us, too, at birdreports@bonairebirds.com.
