Important bird areas (IBAs) are discrete sites that support specific groups of birds: threatened birds, large groups of birds, and birds restricted by range or by habitat. IBAs range in size from very tiny patches of habitat to large tracts of land or water. They may encompass private or public land, and they may or may not overlap partially or entirely with legally protected sites. 1, record 1, English, - important%20bird%20area

Les zones importantes pour la conservation des oiseaux (ZICO) sont des sites qui abritent des groupes d'oiseaux bien précis : espèces menacées, vaste population d'oiseaux ou espèces ayant une aire de répartition réduite. De tailles variées, les ZICO peuvent couvrir de minuscules parcelles de territoire comme de vastes étendues de terre, des rivières et des plans d'eau. Elles peuvent être constituées de terres publiques ou privées et peuvent chevaucher en tout ou en partie des aires protégées. 1, record 1, French, - zone%20importante%20pour%20la%20conservation%20des%20oiseaux
