Great Conservation tool

I really enjoy this app. I love adding a bird survey on the walk near my house and knowing it is contributing to bird conservation.

Not working

I tried to sign up but because the app added a full stop to the end of my email address it was impossible to get the verification code to sign on. Extremely frustrating.

Great App for survey collections

This app has been improved over the last few updates. It is a great way to accurately collect surveys on birds and birds in your backyards. It makes it really easy to identify your birds too

Excellent app

I have recorded over 3500 surveys on the Birdata app. Make no mistake: this is an excellent app. It works! It's easy to use. It's free. And it is being improved.

???

I downloaded the app, excited to get involved, and attempted to register… more than 5 times. Each time getting an error message. I’ve given up.
