Birds of the Norfolk Island

The Norfolk Island is located around 1400 km east of Australia in the Pacific Ocean. It is of volcanic origin and reaches a height of 319 m above sea level. The climate is subtropical, but the island is often hit by cyclones in the first few months of the year. The native rainforest has been largely cleared, so that some of the endemic bird species and subspecies have become extinct. Nevertheless, on the basis of the surviving endemic bird species, BirdLife International has declared Norfolk Island an EBA-P (Primary Endemic Bird Area). Together with Phillip Island, Norfolk Island has three IBAs (Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas), which stand out primarily because of the significant populations of pelagic bird species. The Norfolk Island is a very interesting travel destination for bird watchers.

Norfolk Island is located in the Pacific Ocean. Legally Norfolk Island belongs to Australia. Because of the number of bird species with restricted range occurring in this area, BirdLife International assigned it a Primary Endemic Bird Area (EBA-P).
