Easy bird ID but no confirmation email

Easy and quick. It also has bird calls and range maps to aid identification. My only beef is that although I registered my e-address, an email has not yet arrived in my inbox (an hour later) If that changes this app will receive 5 stars.

So easy and accurate

Only wish it had a feature to save your history/collection of seen birds

Really great app!

I enjoy using this in my day to day life.

Great birding app

Very easy to use. Great images and sounds. Great for the kids

Great App!

This app has helped me identify so many birds! I really appreciate that there are multiple pictures of each kind of bird that you can scroll through to make sure youve identified your mystery bird correctly.

Easy and fast!

No problems at all with the App - thanks!

Easy to use

Always has my bird and makes it easy to find.

Pretty good app

I love how easy it is to find birds in this app. The search function is awesome and accurate. The program occasionally crashes but its worth it.

Very useful app!

I just started using this app and so far it has worked perfectly for me. The lists of likely birds is spot on, and it even provides the call of each bird listed to help confirm identification. Well done!

Great app. Easy to use and very helpful. I frequently use this great app!

Good ... But Not Great

Just downloaded this. But I noticed it does not contain any ptarmigan species ... and we have two: Rock Ptarmigan and Willow Ptarmigan. Also, right on the e-mail page where I saw this app promoted was a photo of an Atlantic Puffin. But guess what? No puffin included in the app! One other thing ... and I am sure there are many others.. it tells me that the American Goldfinch only comes to my area to breed. Nonsense! A flock of 49-50 are at my feeders all winter long ... have been for years. And not just in winter.

Wonderful Birds

App works great and fun to use I owe the birds they dont owe me Thanks

Merlin Birds

Excellent way to find the right bird with 5 simple questions. No more carrying a book for us. We can take a picture and identify the birds later if we want. This is a great app.

I use this all just about every day on my walks through the North Saskatchewan River valley. The coverage is comprehensive and the bird call recordings are helpful. Species coverage isnt quite as broad as it could be for this region, but thats a minor point.

So far I am quite impressed with this app, I have been able to locate all the birds I have been seeing!

Amazing!

I love this app to help identify birds Im not familiar with that visit my feeder. Has been bang on the money with every bird Ive used it to identify. Youll really find this app useful.

Great!

Great app for bird watching at the cabin on the Sunshine Coast BC.

Outstanding but could be a bit better

Love, love, love this app! Ive identified so many birds because of it. Points to improve: Keep track of the birds I see the same way Strava records my bike rides. This app is HUGE! It would be great if I could download a specific region.
