In this paper we present the observations and sightings of birds carried out in 24 departments of Peru between 1963 and 2006. Information on the locations and altitudes is discussed for a total of 319 species from 62 families, and for some species are reported behavior, phenology and songs. 83% of the observations were made between 1963 and 1976 and 37% correspond to observations made in the Department of Lima.
