Résumé :	This report summarises the occurrence in Denmark of 105 species and subspecies. The year 2001 was generally rather warm with weak or moderate winds. The migration of most raptors culminated during a period with easterly winds in late April - early May. Few cyclones passed the country in autumn, with only few seabirds in coastal Danish waters as a result. The exception was the Great Skua which was seen in greater numbers than in any previous year. Other species/subspecies seen in record-setting numbers during 2001 were Great Egret, ssp. rossicus of Bean Goose, Red-breasted Goose, ssp. cahinnans and michahellis of the Yellow-legged Gull, Water Pipit, and Pied Wagtail. Sooty Shearwater, Red-footed Falcon, Glaucous Gull, Turtle Dove, Crested Lark, Red-throated Pipit, and Golden Oriole, on the other hand, had a decidedly weak year, as had the usual irruptive species occurring in Denmark in winter. For a number of uncommon species experiencing a long-term decline the negative tendency continued: White Stork, Gull-billed Tern, Wryneck, Crested Lark, Tawny Pipit, Barred Warbler, Golden Oriole.
