Mouse over the map to view range data for over 11,000 bird species. Explore biome dependence, ecosystem boundaries and unexpected connections across the globe.
Click on the map to see the possible species at that point and view individual ranges. All data is from eBird hotspot observations.
Bring your eBird data, and see your life list range maps (unique, maybe, out of 211,145 possible maps.) Find where on the planet you would identify the most familiar birds, and where you have the most to see. Scroll through time to see how you've explored avian biodiversity.
This map requires a lot of WebGL memory and might not work great on a mobile device. Best viewed on a desktop.
To add your eBird data, first download your data from eBird as a CSV file. Then click "Add eBird data" and choose that CSV file. Your data stays on your computer and is not sent anywhere.
All data is sourced from eBird, in the silliest possible way. Unfortunately, like many citizen science projects, eBird data has geographic biases and not all regions are equally represented.
