Birds of Connecticut

Connecticut is home to around 450 birds, according to the Avian Records Committee of Connecticut. Three species are currently extinct: the labrador duck, heath hen, and passenger pigeon. Several birds of prey, like the sharp-shinned hawk, red-tailed hawk, and osprey, are the big birds of Connecticut. On the other hand, the smaller birds include the house wren, house sparrow, and American goldfinch.

The American robin, a migratory songbird, has been Connecticut’s official state bird since 1943.
