Birds

Birds are the most recorded group and the starting point for most people interested in wildlife. There are 616 species of bird currently listed as British wild species and 316 are listed on the Leicestershire and Rutland checklist, excluding a further 15 species likely to be escapees. 120 species are known to have bred in the two counties. The range and abundance of species changes over time and whilst some have become very rare others, such as Buzzard, Red Kite and Little Egret are now regular sightings. A few species have been recorded in VC55 that are not included in the British Ornithologists' Checklist and these are labelled as EXOTIC. Most are likely escapes from collections and domestic stock; there is no evidence of these species breeding in the wild.
