List of birds of the Sierra Madre Oriental

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Geographical view of Mexico and its mountain ranges Sierra Madre Oriental, Sierra Madre Occidental and Sierra Madre del Sur.

This is a list of birds whose range includes, at least in part, the Sierra Madre Oriental, a mountain range in northeastern Mexico.

As a twin mountain range to the Sierra Madre Occidental, some species will occur in both; because of the separation by the Mexican Plateau some will occur only in one range. A few species are regionally endemic.
