Excellent resource for beginners to experts

Wonderful, comprehensive resource for beginners to experts. Includes photos, calls, ranges, descriptions, etc…. Kudos to the developers.

The data to download is large, so if you are in an area with low bandwidth, follow their instructions for download or use the light version.

Useless downloading

If I could give it zero stars I would. After waiting 10 minutes for a small 350mb country file to download I gave up and permanently removed this app for ever.

A file the size normally only takes my internet 60secs or less.

Get your act together

An app of merit

But the download speed is excessively slow!

2021 update enhances this spectacular app

The Birds of Africa app now completes its portfolio for West Africa, maintaining the high standards already achieved in earlier editions. The quality of photographic images is second to none, whilst information, maps and interactive functions make this outstandingly the ‘go-to’ app for those with a keen interest in African birds, from beginner to seasoned field ornithologist. The African Bird Club and the app developers deserve high praise for producing this excellent resource. It’s expansion into East and Southern Africa is already underway, and is keenly awaited!

African birds

Beautiful clear photos on this app.
The descriptions and bird calls are fantastic. I’m looking forward to using it when I’m next able to travel to an African country again!

Birds of Africa

This is a superb resource. The ABC should be congratulated in producing something of this quality for free and to support education and appreciation of the natural world.

Fantastic

It’s clear this app has been given lots of thought and is very practical for any bird lover. It’s informative as well as fun to use. Definitely would recommend!
