Status & Distribution - Virginia Beach Comprehensive Checklist
This list contains every species for which there exists an accepted record in the City of Virginia Beach, either input to eBird or included by virtue of having been documented by various publications (North American Birds, Virginia Birds, Virginia’s Birdlife: An Annotated Checklist, etc.). The color-coding used throughout this comprehensive checklist is built around how each species is treated in Virginia Beach by eBird, with colors mimicking the methodology used in many hard-copy field guides to North American bird species.
Color Key & Species Count Breakdowns | ||
Seasonality | Species Count | Explanation |
Permanent Resident | 80 |   Permanent Residents; species which are present throughout the full calendar year though individuals may turnover seasonally. |
Winter Resident | 67 |   Annual Winter Residents; species for which there are expected fall arrival & spring departure dates. |
Summer Resident | 41 |   Annual Summer Residents; species for which there are expected spring arrival & fall departure dates. |
Transient | 30 |   Annual Transients; species for which there are expected spring arrival & departure dates, and fall arrival & departure dates. |
Fall Transient | 7 |   Annual Fall Transients; species for which there are expected fall arrival & fall departure dates. |
Spring Transient | 3 |   Annual Spring Transients; species for which there are expected spring arrival & spring departure dates. |
Rarity | 121 |   Rarities; Species which could potentially occur in any given year, but are considered rare. |
Casual/Accidental | 56 |   Accidentals/Casuals; Prior occurrence, but not generally expected to occur in any given year. |
The right portion of this table contains links to distributional information for each species within eBird. A map of the spatial distributions (the 'where') may be accessed under the "Spatial Distribution" column. As long as there are records in Virginia Beach, the map will default to a full view of the county. The final column, 'Counts & Seasonality', provides accepted counts throughout the year for each species. In combination, the spatial, count, and seasonality data comprise the full distribution of each species.
