Where to see the most bird species

Observers recorded the most bird species in Heřmanice (164 bird species), then Polanka nad Odrou and Slezská Ostrava. Half of the neighbourhoods have fewer than 44. Ranking of 21 neighbourhoods with enough sightings to compare.

How we calculate it

The number of bird species recorded in the neighbourhood since 2015 by ornithologists, naturalists and the public (openly licensed sightings from GBIF.org, among them iNaturalist and bird databases). Only neighbourhoods with at least 50 records. Where people go birdwatching more often they find more species, so the order also shows the observers’ favourite spots.

Without neighbourhoods with fewer than 2 000 residents: they are mostly fields or forest, and a handful of addresses would otherwise top every ranking. You’ll find them in the list of all neighbourhoods.
