The Audubon Bird Guide provides a comprehensive and complimentary resource for identifying North American avian species, conveniently accessible from your mobile device. Designed to accommodate birders of every skill level, this application enables you to recognize local bird species, maintain records of observed birds, and discover new birding locations in your vicinity. With millions of installations to date, this application stands among the most reliable and respected resources for North American ornithology. We extend our sincere appreciation to our user community for the valuable feedback regarding our latest version. Many of your recommended enhancements and corrections will be implemented in forthcoming releases. Your continued engagement and backing mean a great deal to us. Recent improvements and forthcoming updates include the restoration of personally curated observation records. While these collections were securely transferred alongside your profile, a technical issue currently prevents their display. They will be reinstated in an upcoming release without requiring any intervention from you. Additional enhancements encompass alphabetical organization of species by scientific nomenclature within the guide, as well as optimized responsiveness when searching and navigating species catalogs, complete with rapid alphabet navigation capabilities. As always, should you require assistance with the application or wish to propose new functionality, please reach out to us at
[email protected]. Identifying a recently observed bird has never been more straightforward. Input your observational details—what coloration did you notice? What was its size? What characteristics did its tail display?—and the Bird ID feature will generate a curated list of likely matches corresponding to your geographic location and current season in real time. Our comprehensive guide encompasses thousands of detailed photographs, over eight hours of vocal recordings featuring songs and calls, comprehensive seasonal distribution maps, and authoritative content authored by distinguished North American ornithologist Kenn Kaufman. Our completely revamped Observations functionality allows you to document every avian encounter, whether you are exploring trails, relaxing on a patio, or simply glimpsing birds through a window. We automatically maintain an updated life list for your records. Explore birding locations in your area and access real-time observation data through eBird. Share your photographic contributions via the Photo Feed to showcase your captures to fellow Audubon Bird Guide enthusiasts. Stay informed with the latest developments from the avian world, scientific research, and conservation efforts directly on your home screen. Locate an Audubon facility nearby to enjoy birding activities. Alternatively, discover opportunities to advocate for avian protection and essential habitats directly within the application. Upon signing in with your NatureShare credentials, your documented observations and imagery will transfer seamlessly into the new application. Should anything appear inconsistent, please rest assured that all your information remains intact, protected, and secure. Please note: During the transition period for migrating all user data to the new application, select community features have been temporarily deactivated. In subsequent updates, we will be reintroducing and introducing new functionalities that facilitate effortless and enjoyable sharing and viewing of photographs captured by Audubon Bird Guide users nationwide.
