List of birds of Quebec
This is a list of bird species confirmed in the Canadian province of Quebec. Unless otherwise noted, the list is that of the Regroupement QuébecOiseaux (RQ) Checklist of the Birds of Quebec as of April 2021. The RQ Checklist contains 471 species. Of them, 152 are casual as defined below. Four species are extinct and seven species were introduced to North America. The list does not include species of unknown or captive origin.
This list is presented in the taxonomic sequence of the Check-list of North and Middle American Birds, 7th edition through the 62nd Supplement, published by the American Ornithological Society (AOS). Common and scientific names are also those of the Check-list, except that Canadian English spellings are used and the common names of families are from the Clements taxonomy because the AOS list does not include them. French names in parentheses are from the RQ Checklist.
The following tags are used to describe some categories of occurrence.
Order: Anseriformes Family: Anatidae
Anatidae includes the ducks and most duck-like waterfowl, such as geese and swans. These birds are adapted to an aquatic existence with webbed feet, bills which are flattened to a greater or lesser extent, and feathers that are excellent at shedding water due to special oils.
Order: Galliformes Family: Phasianidae
Phasianidae consists of the pheasants and their allies. These are terrestrial species, variable in size but generally plump with broad relatively short wings. Many species are gamebirds or have been domesticated as a food source for humans.
Order: Podicipediformes Family: Podicipedidae
