This is a list of the bird species recorded in Israel. The avifauna of Israel include a total of 535 species, of which five have been introduced by humans and 141 are rare or accidental. One species listed is extirpated in Israel and is not included in the species count. Fourteen species are globally threatened. This list's taxonomic treatment (designation and sequence of orders, families and species) and nomenclature (common and scientific names) follow the conventions of ''The Clements Checklist of Birds of the World'', 5th edition. The family accounts at the beginning of each heading reflect this taxonomy, as do the species counts found in each family account. Introduced and accidental species are included in the total counts for Israel. The following tags have been used to highlight several categories, but not all species fall into one of these categories. Those that do not are commonly occurring native species. * (A) Accidental - a species that rarely or accidentally occurs in Israel * (I) Introduced - a species introduced to Israel as a consequence, direct or indirect, of human actions * (Ex) Extirpated - a species that no longer occurs in Israel although populations exist elsewhere __NOTOC__ ==Ostriches== Order: StruthioniformesFamily: Struthionidae The ostrich is a flightless bird native to Africa.
