Beschreibung

The new Sibley Birds app has arrived with comprehensive, up to date information of over 930 North American species. Go birdwatching and discover the birds of USA and Canada.  All the detailed artwork from David Sibley’s Guide to Birds Second Edition is included as well as thorough descriptions and distribution maps. Benefit from regular plate updates from the author and new bird calls. This leading bird app is user-friendly and easy to navigate, regardless of whether you are a novice or experienced birdwatcher. Identify birds easily! Using our Smart Search filters and My Location setting you'll find that bird you're looking for in no time! Features include: • A new easy to navigate menu system on iPhone. • A new grid view with larger thumbnails. • Display species names in English, French, Spanish and Latin (Scientific). • Search on banding code to quickly find a species. • Over 2700 calls/songs covering most species. • Compare 2 species side by side. • Apply a location (US State or Canadian Province) to narrow down the list of birds. • When a location has been selected, a status icon will appear next to each species in that location indicating whether it is Common, Uncommon, Scarce, Rare or Vagrant. • Detailed information in the species description including location status by month. • A similar species feature which shows all related birds. • A vastly improved Smart Search with refined search criteria: Status and by month (when a location is selected), Bird habits, Bird Type, Bird Size, Body Shape, Color and Pattern. • Keep a personal list (My List) of species seen and backup to iCloud/other cloud service. • Build a custom sharable (as csv) and searchable (in Smart Search) species list using the new My Tags feature. • Sort My List taxonomically. If you have any queries or comments on the app we are always happy to hear from you at support@mydigitalearth.com

    This might not be the best app for a complete novice, but once you know enough to realize what two birds you want to compare, the app is fabulous.

    I cannot download this app to my telephone since it was updated. I previously had two copies of the older versions. Help me, please.

    I’m sure I will discover more to like about this new version but for now let me applaud a couple changes: the four-character banding code now works! I suspect most birders once they discover the convenience of using these abbreviations of names will adopt their use. eBird supports their use as do most of the Birding apps. So I am happy to see this app incorporate their use. If you need more help with bird codes I recommend PEFA by Nemesis Code for an explanation and their look-up. Second, the “COMPARE” feature has been expanded. You are now shown all similar species and can select them one at a time to study similarities and differences. Before you had to know and select the two species to compare ... most likely overlooking one or more points of confusion. You can still compare two species of your choice even if they are not similar (e.g., CORA & SWHA, common raven & swainson’s hawk). This comparison example brings up a feature that would be helpful for birders who frequent HawkWatch sites: profiles of raptors and other large high flying birds are more useful for ID than close-up feather detail. Sibley demonstrates this usefulness in both species of this example. Perhaps a future version of his app will expand this feature to include all birds you are likely to find challenging at a HawkWatch. I use my phone app in the field and my tablet app for armchair bird study. Considering what I have invested in bird books over the past sixty years, this $10 was my Best Buy of the decade.

    Audubon app has much more informed descriptions and has several variations of songs, along with diet, nesting habits and egg color, as well as conservation status.

    The only complaint is that it does with iPhone updates. Sometimes impossible to access songs as they are on top of each other. not keep up

    Quintessential field guide for North America. Easy to navigate. Superior app to Merlin and Audubon. I am a field biologist and this is my go-to for referencing any and all species I come across in California.
