Written and designed by experts, this is a guide to 273 birds with songs and calls provided by top sound recordists, text specially written by biologist Dr Hilary Wilson, and carefully selected photos showing a variety of plumages. In addition to the 273 birds featured, the app also recognises the names of over 700 species and subspecies, so that you can record sightings of these birds.

We have over 12 years experience of developing nature programs and this has enabled us to create a guide designed to identify birds as quickly as possible. The app selects the birds for the area where you live, identifies mystery birds, records your sightings, includes multiple images and key features, plus includes a built-in simple-to-use email backup and an export facility.
