May 2002 - The taxonomic order, common names and four-letter codes included in this web version of the Rolley Lake Provincial Park Bird Checklist published in 1995 have been updated using the 7th edition of the American Ornithologists' Union (AOU) Check-List of North American Birds (AOU 1998) and its supplement (AOU 2000). |
| The following is a list of the bird species that have been observed in Rolley Lake Provincial Park. The status of each species is indicated by an abundance level in each of four seasons. The standard four letter code is shown for each species.
Note: The status of each species is based on the best available information, and is subject to change as new observations are recorded. Many species are likely more abundant than listed. Hypothetical List: These are species that have been reported for the park but fir which no dated records could be found, or for which there is insufficient documentation. This list includes Common Snipe, Glaucous-winged Gull, Northern Pygmy-Owl, Townsend's Solitaire, American Redstart, Chipping Sparrow, Fox Sparrow and Brewer's Blackbird.
