Birds around Copenhagen
Copenhagen, Capital Region, Denmark
Every measure here is worked out per 5 degree square, so this covers the wider area around Copenhagen (55° to 60° latitude, 10° to 15° 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).
