Three species listed are extirpated in Swaziland and are not included in the species count. Eleven 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.

The commonly occurring native species do not fall into any of these categories. * (A) Accidental - a species that rarely or accidentally occurs in Swaziland * (I) Introduced - a species introduced to Swaziland as a consequence, direct or indirect, of human actions * (Ex) Extirpated - a species that no longer occurs in Swaziland although populations exist elsewhere __NOTOC__ ==Ostriches== Order: StruthioniformesFamily: Struthionidae The ostrich is a flightless bird native to Africa.
