Abstract

Two new species appeared in the Hungarian avifauna in 2014: the Spanish Sparrow and the Blyth’s Reed Warbler. One pair of Spanish Sparrow was breeding in Bácsborsód between June 13^th and July 31^st in the side of a stork nest. The Blyth’s Reed Warbler was trapped and ringed near Tömörd on August 15^th. With the observations of these species the number of bird species that have ever been proven to occur in Hungary has risen to 411.
