  • Bigfoot & me

    I’m in awe at the power of this app! The updates since iPhone One are reflective of a database that’s never going to go out of style! The importance in the fields of conservation and film of databases like these are a good investment.
  • More missing birds

    Really? You would think something as common as a quail would be in this app but no, it is not. This is the second or third time I have been greatly disappointed. I live at a lake where there are many species of birds but am still looking for the name of one of the birds I see only occasionally.
  • I identified it…

    …as a kid fishing and hunting in marsh areas in Southern California, there was a bird that had a distinctive call and was always hidden. I always wondered what it looked like, well this app was suggested to try and, guess what, I listened to the various calls provided in the app, I finally was able to see the mysterious bird. Yippee!!!

  • Missing common birds

    Whether there is a picture or not, there should at least be a hidden reference so when a search is done on a somewhat common bird, it at least states this bird is not available in this app at this time. You would think the app developers would be considerate enough to do that.

    Today is the second time I saw the same species bird. My daughter was with me and supplied the name “cormorant”. Apparently, at ine time this species almost became extinct due to DDT but since that is no longer used, has made a significant comeback.

  • Wonderful App

    I have used this app in Texas and Florida. It has helped me to identify and learn about many birds. I sit on my patio every morning to watch the birds feed. Recently noticed a new one I was able to ID as a house finch. When I turned on the recording of the male bird calling, about 30 nearby finches flew in and perched on top of my crepe myrtle. It was an awesome experience.

  • Audobon

    This haas brought back so many memories for me, from the Boy Scout badge I earned back in the 60’s….to my back yard feeders i keep year -round for my feathered living fossils…thank you!
  • Excellent resource!

    I live in rural East Texas and am able to enjoy quite a collection of neighboring birds who fly in for the all-you-can-eat buffets at my feeders. This app is a perfect resource for a newbie birdwatcher like me to easily id the birds I see, or helpful & interesting to the more knowledgeable lovers of birds and their habitats. Highly recommend! Looking forward to “reading” iBird Yard with my grandson as we watch the birds outside our windows.

  • Bird watching

    I love the app and I love learning new things about birds and I found out about new birds that I didn’t even know about the only thing that I hate is the bird watching because the bird watching because the birds are so fast it’s
    Dumb but otherwise it’s awesome😇.
  • Awesome! Invaluable to me

    Birdwatching has become a big thing to me over the past few years, and I loved this app. But, last year, we moved from an apartment to a home in a far more sparsely populated area. There is a meadow out back and then forest behind that—even a private nature park. The number of bird species around at least double the number we saw before. We even have hawks that try for some of the smaller birds or small animals. Birds allows me to identify them all with confidence.

    If you are new to birdwatching, this app is a must. It’s easier to use than the Audubon by far.

    Great app. One of my favorites for years. Gives you a lot of features for free.
