This is a list of birds recorded in the island of Vieques. Vieques is an island municipality of Puerto Rico located off the east coast of the main island of Puerto Rico, south of Culebra island and west of the Virgin Islands. It has a total area of 348.15 km², of which only 135 km² is land area. On May 1, 2001, the western end of Vieques National Wildlife Refuge was established and on May 1, 2003, the same day as the exit of the U.S. Navy from the island, the eastern end of the refuge was established.

There are a total of 142 species recorded from the island of Vieques. Some species, such as the Puerto Rican parrot, have been extirpated from the island but are, nonetheless, included in this list. Extinct species are not included in this list.

This list presents the following information for each species: common and scientific name of each species, preferred habitat, breeding status in Vieques and frequency of occurrence for each season (winter spans from December to February, spring from March to May, summer from June to August, fall from September to November). Tags (described below) are used to describe this information for each species.

Taxonomy

This list's taxonomic treatment (designation and sequence of orders, families and species) and nomenclature (common and scientific names) follow the conventions of The Clements Checklist of Birds of the World, 5th edition. The family accounts at the beginning of each heading reflect this taxonomy, as do the species counts found in each family account. Introduced, stray and extirpated species are included in the total species counts for Vieques.

The following tags have been used to describe the frequency of occurrence of each species in Vieques.

(a) Abundant - a species that is commonly encountered in Vieques
(c) Common - a species that commonly occurs in Vieques
(u) Uncommon - a species that occurs uncommonly - it is present but rarely seen in Vieques
(o) Occasional - a species that may not occur every year
(r) Rare - a species that has been reported once or twice

The following tags have been used to describe the habitats in which a species occurs. Species may inhabit more than one type of habitat.

(TS) Thorn scrub
(IA) Inhabited areas
(ML) Mangrove lagoons
(DF) Dry forest
(Sh) Shoreline
(MF) Moist forest

The following tags have been used to describe the breeding status of each species in Vieques.

(B) Breeder

(M) Migrant
(St) Stray

Grebes

Order: Podicipediformes{{nbsp|3}}Family: Podicipedidae

Grebes are small to medium-large freshwater diving birds. They have lobed toes and are excellent swimmers and divers. However, they have their feet placed far back on the body, making them quite ungainly on land.

Order: Passeriformes{{nbsp|3}}Family: Emberizidae

Emberizidae is a large family of passerine birds. They are seed-eating birds with distinctively shaped bills. In Europe, most species are called buntings.
