I wanted to encourage you to search using Google Scholar to discover additional Bird related publications that could be added to your Bird data file.
The RBIS design allows for data tracking over time, and one of the indicators of biodiversity includes how bird populations have changed over time. It is thus useful to include additional data points of bird observations from publications when the location (including georeference) is provided.
I attach some papers I found on Google Scholar. I have not evaluated their usefulness or geographic context - I merely wanted to demonstrate the importance of exploring alternative sources of data.
