helps birders, twitchers, and bird watchers track sightings worldwide.

All over the globe, tens of thousands of bird watchers acting as citizen scientists submit millions of bird observations every month to Cornell University’s eBird database. These observations are then reviewed by local birding experts for accuracy to ensure the validity of each sighting (verified sightings are marked with an *).

Ratings and reviews

Doesn't have a lot of features. It would be awesome if one could search a certain bird and the app could gather information from eBird and show the results on the map. ( for the most recent sightings) I am glad that I have the app though.

Up to the minute, with checklists, maps and navigation.

Elegantly simple and a breeze to use. My only wish is being able to change my location so that I can plan where to go.
