## What is Pocket Bird Guide, Netherlands?

* From the makers of Chirp! *

Fantastic photos, songs, calls, distribution maps and detailed information for 180 birds - all the common and best known birds in the Netherlands arranged by family or alphabetically. The bird notes are specially written for the app and describe appearance, habitat, diet, lifespan, nesting habits, rarity status, distribution and interesting facts.

The photo-based Bird Finder will quickly identify a mystery bird, then you can mark it as seen and make a note about it. Automatically note the current date, time, latitude and longitude. Share the news with your friends straight away with the built-in Facebook and Twitter links.

iSpiny promise: No in-app purchase, no hidden extra charges! We update our apps regularly with new features but we will never ask you to pay for them. All the features listed here are included in the app for no extra cost.

Special features!
• A photo-based BIRD FINDER based on appearance, habitat, location, date and more
• Carefully selected photos of MALES, FEMALES and JUVENILES, to show the main features
• Labelled photos of KEY FEATURES
• A COMPARE IMAGES feature
• A SONG or CALL for EVERY BIRD
• A HISTORY feature to make it easy to go back to the last bird you looked at
