Because of the number of changes to the list and necessitated by the update to the Check-list of North and Middle American Birds which the American Ornithological Society published on June 30, 2020, the revisions to this article are presented here rather than in a series of edit summaries. Changes are per the AOS unless otherwise noted.

  • Revise the references, counts, and text in the introduction.
  • Add a species per Lepage.
  • Revise multiple families' common names per Clements.
  • Revise the sequence of species in family Phasiannidae (Pheasants, grouse, and allies).

  • Split mew gull into common gull and short-billed gull and revise entries accordingly.
  • Revise the genus of ruby-crowned kinglet.
  • Revise text, counts, and references as appropriate.
