A list of waterbirds includes the alder flycatcher, the bald eagle, the American black duck, and the ancient murrelet. The list also includes the boat-tailed grackle, the bank swallow, the belted kingfisher, and the horned puffin, to name just a few.

A desert animal that begins with the letter X is the Xantus murrelet. This is a form of lizard that can be found in Africa.
