Birds of Nevada

Nevada has almost 500 birds as of the records published by the Nevada Bird Records Committee (NNBRC).

Unlike the bustling southern Nevada region, the northern part of the state appears more isolated and secluded, a perfect destination for wildlife lovers and birders. Some prominent birding spots include the Goshute Mountains, Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge, and the Lamoille Canyon, where birds like the ruddy duck, trumpeter swan, and ferruginous hawk.

Southern Nevada also has its share of birds, like the lesser goldfinch and northern mockingbird.

The mountain bluebird has been Nevada’s official state bird since 1967.
