Abstract:

Bird bone remains consisting of 2477 skeletal fragments belonging to at least 488 bird individuals of 116 taxa are described, the great majority of them identified to the species level. They are characteristic of various habitats and all European climatic zones. They accumulated in the Late Glacial period of the Vistulian and the Holocene. 11 bird taxa have not been recorded from Poland as fossils.
