Macaronesian Birds is a collection and registry of birds from Macaronesia.

Macaronesia is the collective name of five archipelagos in the North Atlantic, more or less close to the African continent: Azores, Canaries, Cape Verde, Madeira and the Wild Islands.

The term comes from the Greek μακάρων νησοι, "fortunate islands", or island of the Blessed, the abode of the dead heroes according to mythology, in the extreme West.

The islands of Macaronesia have many natural characteristics (botanical, zoological, geological and climatological) in common: they are, for example, of volcanic origin and host a particularly rich and diverse flora, with abundant endemisms.

To these islands is added the so-called African Macaronesian enclave, an area of ​​the African coast located approximately between the Canaries and Cape Verde (that is, between the coast of Western Sahara and the Gambia River, approximately), which shares some of the endemic species of the Macaronesian archipelagos.
