The Birds of the World pages provide a recommended citation with authors, e.g.

Winkler, D. W., S. M. Billerman, and I.J. Lovette (2020). Bulbuls (Pycnonotidae), version 1.0. In Birds of the World (S. M. Billerman, B. K. Keeney, P. G. Rodewald, and T. S. Schulenberg, Editors). Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Ithaca, NY, USA. https://doi.org/10.2173/bow.pycnon4.01 }}

While the authors can be added manually using |authorN=, |lastN= and |firstN=, you can copy and past the citation into the |citation= parameter and the template will parse the citation text and create the parameters used for the {{cite web}} template.
