Birds in Brunei
28 species listed · birdwatchers' records, 2019–2024
Our list for Brunei has 28 bird species recorded regularly there: 5 winter visitors, 16 passage migrants and 7 scarce visitors.
The list comes from 11,000 birdwatchers' records from 2019–2024, shared through the eBird Observation Dataset on GBIF. A bird is listed when it was recorded in at least 3 of the 6 years and has a Birdfact species guide, so more species occur here than are listed; the months show when it is recorded most years.
