Birds around Bogotá
Bogotá, Bogota D.C., Colombia
Every measure here is worked out per 5 degree square, so this covers the wider area around Bogotá (0° to 5° latitude, -75° to -70° longitude, about 550 km across), not the city alone. Counts are shares of all birds records in the same weeks, so busier stations do not inflate them (methods).
