The invention discloses an automatic tracking type solar street lamp which comprises a solar cell panel, a tracking sensor, a rotating frame, a coupler, a transmission rod, a first motor, a second motor, a main shaft, a first lamp pole, a second lamp pole, a rainproof box, a bird repelling device, a lamp frame, an LED lamp and a fastening screw. According to the automatic tracking type solar street lamp, the tracking sensor composed of four photoresistors is adopted, and therefore the deflection angle, namely the azimuth angle of the sun moving from east to west and the sun apparent altitude, namely the altitude angle of the sun can be detected; the first motor and the second motor are used for controlling the direction and the angle of the solar panel so that illumination all day can be sufficiently utilized; the bird repelling device part with a rainproof structure is additionally arranged so that the phenomenon that birds move on the solar panel, and consequently work of the whole device is affected can be prevented, and applicability is improved; and the lamp poles are of adjustable structures, a worker does not need to climb up the lamp poles when parts need to be replaced or the street lamp needs to be repaired, and labor losses are reduced.
