- This list of birds of Utah includes species documented in the U.S. state of Utah and accepted by the Utah Bird Records Committee (UBRC). As of July 2022, there were 469 species included in the official list. Of them, 119 are classed as accidental, 31 are classed as occasional, 59 are classed as rare, and 10 have been introduced to Utah or North America. Nine of the accidental species are also classed as provisional. This list is presented in the taxonomic sequence of the Check-list of North and Middle American Birds, 7th edition through the 62nd Supplement, published by the American Ornithological Society (AOS). Common and scientific names are also those of the Check-list, except that the common names of families are from the Clements taxonomy because the AOS list does not include them. Unless otherwise noted, all species listed below are considered to occur regularly in Utah as permanent residents, summer or winter visitors, or migrants. These tags are used to annotate some species:
* (A) Accidental - "Not expected and out of normal range" per the UBRC
* (O) Occasional - "Not observed annually, but a few individuals may occur some years in appropriate habitat and season" per the UBRC
* (R) Rare - "Found infrequently but annually in very small numbers in appropriate habitat and season" per the UBRC
* (I) Introduced - species established in North America or directly in Utah solely as result of direct or indirect human action
* (P) Provisional - "Provisional species accepted on sight record(s) only" per the UBRC (en)
