Breeding Birds

This is a list of birds recorded as breeding (covering activities from Display to Dependent Young) over the duration of the project.  The list is in the order proposed by Christidis and Boles (2nd attempt) which has been endorsed by Birds Australia as the official list for Australia.  Note that I have not attempted to split the list as I have the occurence listing since there is no way of doing so that is:
  1. Concise,
  2. Sensible; and
  3. Meaningful to anyone other than a taxonomist.
