Bird Orders and Families -- How many have you seen?

@lintworm. I've seen the Cetti's Warbler on three occassions. Seems pretty decent, but considering I've heard it about 30-40 times without seeing it, it's not that great.
Pic (not that great) and exact location where it was taken; Cetti's Zanger - Cettia cetti

I have heard them plenty of times, but just not seen them yet, even though there are multiple territories close to my house. It is just not very motivating to look through thickets for a small brown boring bird :p

They are indeed placed in a number of different orders :p but for the sake of consistency with everyone else I will keep my list to the same format/taxonomy as everyone else.

I noted that as well, however as HBW taxonomy is usually accepted and their layout is relatively easy to follow when copying, I chose to go with them. I do however agree that the "Struthioniformes" is better split. The kiwis and tinamous in particular are best in their own orders I feel.

Even that wouldn't work, if you retained everything else together - those two groups are deeply nested within the radiation as a whole, with kiwi the sister group to elephant birds, and tinamou the sister group to moas, so the only way to maintain monophyly is to have orders for everything.
 
I have noticed that I am the only one who has seen Semnornithidae (prong-billed barbets) - are Toucan Barbets an exceptional captive bird to have seen? Or is that just a random result from the selection of people listing in this thread?
 
Where did you see 'em?

I have to admit that I wasn't up to date on barbet taxonomy so it's one of those things that I might have seen but not realised it as a distinct family. So I assumed it being an American species that I hadn't seen it.
That's also why I'm not sure if I've seen one of the new world barbets. Can't remember if I saw the Gilded Barbets at Walsrode or if I came across any others anywhere else.


Gonna get worse when I get to my passerine list because I was never all that interested in them before my time in Australia, so it's probably gonna be a bit of a struggle to remember what I've seen.

They're one of those species that was around in private and public collections here in Europe, but which has died off in the last decade or so - so the European members who have seen them will largely be confined to the older contingent, or those who have the connections with private aviculture to have seen them more recently.
 
If they were already around back in 2017 I might have seen them. Will have to check my pictures. Can't remember if I made a list back then.
 
Thought I'd give this a go. I still need to tick off a lot of local wild bird species.

Welp, there's my list. I just bolded what I've seen.
Click to expand...

No starlings, weavers, or waxbills?
 
@Chlidonias Prong-billed Barbets are rare indeed, I would have rather seen those in Jurong in April, when still behind the scenes and would have traded it with my Spix' Macaw sighting (which I had already seen in Belgium)

It appears that there are 2 extra families, which are missing from the current list, based on the Lynx Bird Families of the World book. The Sarothruridae (Flufftails & Woodrails) is a valid family based on genetic work, placing it as sister to finfoots, so outside Rallidae. Additionally they split the Formicariidae (Ant-Thrushes) and the Furnariidae (Ovenbirds). Interestingly the Sarothruridae split is not followed in HBW alive, whereas the latter is.

If this split is accepted I would have seen 170 families (Madagascar Woodrail seen):

Seen
Seen only in the wild
Seen only in captivity

I have seen:
35 bird orders, 32 in captivity and 33 in the wild
170 bird families, 128 in captivity and 142 in the wild.

Ah ok. That's gonna save me some time then^^

Are there puffbirds in captivity anywhere? That's another group that didn't ring a bell for me.
