Birds of the Easter Island

Easter Island or Rapa Nui is volcanic and one of the most remote islands in the world; it lies more than 3500 km west of the coast of Chile. There is a tropical rainforest climate. The island is particularly famous for its stone statues, the Moai, and is therefore a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The birdlife is dominated by seabirds - all land birds that breed on Easter Island are introduced species. Nevertheless, BirdLife International has declared the island an IBA, but unfortunately the associated website is currently (still) without content.

Easter Island is located in the Pacific Ocean. Legally Easter Island belongs to Chile.
