Are you a bird nerd? Do you live in the Pacific Northwest? Do you know a scaup from a goldeneye? Find out in this 30 question PNW bird identification quiz.

This is a very challenging quiz that consists of photo identification with some multiple choice, but many questions where you have to enter the text yourself. We’ve accounted for some variation in names, and a few common misspellings. Common and scientific names will work. But you do need to be *very* specific. “Duck,” for example, will not cut it.

We took many of the bird photos ourselves, but where we used others’ photos we’ve cited the source in the quiz (i.e. we used some from Flickr that were under Creative Commons licenses).

Challenge your knowledge of the birds of the PNW with this 30-question quiz. Note that we just, recently, moved this quiz back to this website. Looks like all of the images are here, but if there are any issues that we have not noted, please report it to us.

Quiz Facts:

  • Number of questions: 30 random bird photo identification questions from a large bank of questions about PNW birds.
  • Challenge level: Extremely challenging. Asks you to be specific about the bird. Just “duck” won’t work. If it’s a duck you need to state the specific type of duck.
  • Types of questions: text entry, photo identification, multiple choice
  • Passing score: 75%
  • Note that there is a Recaptcha box at the end of the quiz. This is to prevent spambots from taking quizzes and skewing results.
  • Awards (if you’re logged in) The PNW Bird Nerd badge and 30 brain cells. However you do NOT need to be logged in to try the quiz, you just can’t log in after the fact and still keep track of your score, get badges, etc.
  • This is a challenging quiz. You can take it up to a max of 10 times if you don’t pass the first time.

Where we could, we used our own bird photos. If we used photos from photo sharing sites such as Pixabay or Unsplash, we attributed it in the individual question.
