This study was carried out on breeding bird species at Zalingei area, Sudan. The objective of this study is to document the bird species breeding at Zalingei area. The Direct observation and road count were used to data collection between April to November 2013and April to November2014. The study area was patrolled by car and on foot from7:00am to7:00pm, Field binoculars (Samsunglens HD, Tianzhufeng, 8×40,168ft) and Digital camera Samsung model (DV150F/DV151F/DV155F) were used for observation of birds identification of birds were made using East and Central African birds guide (Williams, 1991 and Sinclair and Peter, 2010). Coordinates of wetlands was done using Global Positioning System(GPS). Total of 37 species, out of 121 species were recorded breeding during the study period. They were distributed in the four sites, in Zalingei 32 species were recorded breeding. 28 species were recorded breeding in Terij and W. Azoom (23species). But the lower breeding species were seen; (14species) in Shawa.
