Where to see the most bird species

Observers recorded the most bird species in Bolevec (130 bird species), then Doubravka and Jižní Předměstí. Half of the neighbourhoods have fewer than 72. Ranking of 14 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.
