About the Project

The Israeli Red List of Breeding Birds aims to assess the status of wild breeding bird species throughout Israel. This work is based on the best, up-to-date information including the scientific assessment of tens of bird experts that took part in data collection and input of their expert opinion regarding species populations. The red list is a joint effort of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel and the Israel Nature and Parks Authority to determine the risk of extinction for our breeding bird species and to suggest actions required to prevent their disappearance.

Expert Birder Opinion

Assessing the threat status of breeding bird species was made possible by the volunteer work of expert birders that input their data into our database and then reviewed the results of the red list.
