Birds, which are important elements of biodiversity, are also an indicator of an ecosystem. However, this is only possible by knowing the bird species living in each region and their population densities. For this purpose, this study that we done, have based on 2 years of field observations. As a result of the observations and field studies carried out by point counting and line counting methods on nine different test routes, the species identified were identified, their densities in the area and their status in the area were determined. Guidebooks were used to determine the species obtained as a result of the observations. As a result of the study, 53 different bird species belonging to 11 orders and 23 families were identified in the study area. Among the bird species identified, the Passeriformes order is the most common order in the area with 34 different species, followed by the Falconiformes order with 5 different species. They were identified species from Muscicapidae 8, Fringillidae 5, Paridae 4, Turdidae 4, Corvidae 3, Motacillidae 2, Sylvidae 2 and other families 1 in the Passeriformes order. In addition, 34 of the species identified in the area were native, 13 were summer migrants, 3 were winter migrants and the remaining 3 were transit birds. Although it is a protected area, the intensive use of this area for wood production and the high hunter pressure in the area have been identified as the most important problems affecting the populations of bird species in the region. Determining the bird species of Sökü Wildlife Development Area, where large mammal wild animals were previously identified, will contribute to other biodiversity studies to be carried out in the region.
