Description The Audubon Bird Guide is a free and complete field guide to over 800 species of North American birds, right in your pocket. Built for all experience levels, it will help you identify the birds around you, keep track of the birds you’ve seen, and get outside to find new birds near you. With over 2 million downloads to date, it is one of the best and most trusted field guides for North American birds. KEY FEATURES: ALL-NEW: BIRD ID It's now easier than ever to identify a bird you just saw.
Enter all you were able to observe—what color was it? What did its tail look like?—and Bird ID will narrow down a list of possible matches for your location and date in real time. LEARN ABOUT THE BIRDS YOU LOVE Our field guide features over 3,000 photos, over eight hours of audio clips of songs and calls, multi-season range maps, and in-depth text by leading North American bird expert Kenn Kaufman. KEEP TRACK OF ALL THE BIRDS YOU SEE With our completely redesigned Sightings feature, you can keep a record of every bird you encounter, whether you're hiking, sitting on the porch, or simply catching a glimpse of birds out the window. We'll even keep an updated life list for you.
EXPLORE THE BIRDS AROUND YOU See where the birds are with nearby birding hotspots and real-time sightings from eBird. SHARE PHOTOS Post your photos to the Photo Feed so other Audubon Bird Guide users can see your best bird shots. GET INVOLVED WITH AUDUBON Keep up with the latest news from the world of birds, science, and conservation. Find an Audubon location near you to go birding. Or see where your voice is needed and take action to protect birds and the places they need, right from your app. FOR OUR EXISTING USERS: Once you log in with your NatureShare account, your sightings and photos will migrate with you into the new app.
If something doesn’t look right, don’t worry—all of your data is untouched, safe, and secure. While we work on migrating all of our users’ data to the new app, we have temporarily disabled some of the app’s community features. In the next few updates, we’ll be restoring and adding new features that make it easy and fun to share and view the photos taken by other Audubon Bird Guide users around the country. Have any questions or need help? Contact us at audubonconnect@audubon.org About Audubon: The National Audubon Society protects birds and the places they need, today and tomorrow, throughout the Americas using science, advocacy, education, and on-the-ground conservation.
Audubon’s state programs, nature centers, chapters, and partners have an unparalleled wingspan that reaches millions of people each year to inform, inspire, and unite diverse communities in conservation action. Since 1905, Audubon’s vision has been a world in which people and wildlife thrive. In this release (version 5.1.1), you'll find several new features that many of our users have requested since the new version's launch this spring. They are:.Sort by Last Name, First Name in the Field Guide. When browsing species by alphabet, you will see a new sort control at the top to sort species by their last name. So rather than 'Yellow Warbler' filed under Y, you'll see 'Warbler, Yellow' filed under W.
This makes it easy to scroll down to see all the warblers together. (You can also, as before, use the Search function by tapping the magnifying glass at the top of the screen, and start typing 'warbler' to filter the list).Alphabetical jump-scrolling in Field Guide. Another feature we think will make it easier to find birds in the Field Guid is a new jump-scrolling control. Simply drag your finger up and down the alphabet on the right side of the screen to jump directly to a letter.Added Canadian frequency data to Bird ID. Users in Canada can now use Bird ID to identify birds by Canadian province.
If you are located in Canada, Bird ID will auto-detect your location, and only show you birds common to your province for the selected month.Assorted bug fixes. Including a fix for a crash some users were running into when browsing all species matches in Bird ID.
5.1 Jul 16, 2018. In this update we are pleased to introduce Custom Lists, which you can use to keep track of multiple lists of species you've seen—or want to see! We know every birder has their own system, so we wanted to make Custom Lists as flexible as possible. You can easily add species to a Custom List when you're adding a sighting, or you can add species to Custom Lists directly from My Audubon, without creating a sighting. And if you'd like to sync any of these direct additions to Custom Lists to your Life List, which automatically keeps track of every species for which you've created a sighting, you have that option. For long-time users of the app, this update will also restore any public lists associated with your pre-existing NatureShare account as Custom Lists. If you have existing NatureShare lists to import, your NatureShare account must not be set to 'private' for the import to work, and you must log in to the Audubon Bird Guide app using the same email address that you used to login with NatureShare.
For more information on how you can use Custom Lists, and for help troubleshooting any problems with importing NatureShare lists, please see audubon.org/custom-lists. Thank you to our beta testers who helped us test this feature before its release. If you'd like to receive access to new features before they're released and help us test them, please sign up to become a tester at audubon.org/app-beta. 5.0.10 Jul 8, 2018. Thank you for enjoying the app and providing feedback to customer service as we continue to improve it!
In this update, we fixed a crash related to location logging that several users reported experiencing. If you're experiencing crashes or other issues with the app, we want to know! Please reach out to our customer service department at audubonconnect@audubon.org and they will ensure the app team resolves the issue in a subsequent release. We also invite anyone experiencing app crashes to join our beta test program. For details, visit audubon.org/app-beta. 5.0.8 Jun 13, 2018. This release include multiple bug fixes and performance enhancements that should lead to a more stable app.
We've also made some changes to the Explore section, making more eBird sightings and hotspots visible at a time.

5.0.7 May 17, 2018. We take user feedback very seriously, and listened to our users who did not want to create an account to access the app. In this update, you can now access the app without creating a password-protected account. This update also includes: usability improvements for iPad users, the ability to edit the year of your sightings, and other bug fixes and stability improvements.
As always, if you need help with the app, or have a suggestion for a new feature, please contact us directly at audubonconnect@audubon.org. 5.0.2 Apr 3, 2018. Thank you to all our users for the feedback on the new update. We'll be incorporating many of your feature suggestions and fixes in the next few updates. We very much appreciate your help and support. Included in this update: - A fix for an issue that was preventing users from editing and saving existing/imported sightings - Sightings imported without a location will no longer appear on your map, and will be listed in My Sightings with an Unknown Location. Some long-time NatureShare users had sightings in their account that, due to an issue in previous versions, were saved without a location attached.
You can now find those sightings in My Sightings sorted by date, and can edit and re-save them with a new location if you wish. Based on your feedback, we're currently working on the following issues: - Restoration of user-created sighting lists. These lists were safely migrated with your account, but an issue is preventing them from being displayed. These will be restored soon in a future update, without any action required on your part.
The ability to sort species alphabetically by last name in the field guide. Improved performance when searching and browsing lists of species, including the ability to quickly jump to a letter of the alphabet.
Usability improvements, including photo and map display issues, for iPad users - The ability to access the field guide, nearby eBird sightings, and other app features that don't require user-submitted data without first creating an account - Other assorted usability and stability fixes As always, if you need help with the app, or have a suggestion for a new feature, please contact us directly at audubonconnect@audubon.org. 5.0.1 Mar 29, 2018. In a word, everything! We’ve completely redesigned the app to make it easier and more fun to use for birders of all experience levels. We’ve heard you loud and clear—you’ll now find it easier than ever to access the field guide, keep track of sightings, find birds near you with eBird, share photos—and that’s just the beginning. We’ll be updating our all-new app much more frequently, adding new features and refinements to make sure it continues to be your trusted guide to the birds you love.
NEW FEATURES:. We’ve added an all-new Bird ID feature that makes it easier than ever to identify a bird you’ve seen. Start with a list of birds common for your date & location, and narrow it down by entering any observations you were able to make about its size, color, behavior, and more. We bet you’ll be identifying birds like a pro in no time.
We’ve completely redesigned the Add Sighting feature to make it easier to keep track of all the birds you’ve seen and to keep an up-to-date life list. You no longer have to enter birds one at a time, and your sightings will be automatically organized into lists by location and date.
We’ve given the field guide a total redesign, bringing over 3,000 photos front-and-center, and making it even easier to access songs & calls, range maps, related birds, and in-depth text by Kenn Kaufman. The all-new Explore section combines a much-improved eBird sighting browser with the Photo Feed, where Audubon Bird Guide app users can share their best bird photos. We’ll be making even more improvements to the photo-sharing experience in the next several updates to come. And so much more. Dive in and see for yourself! FOR OUR EXISTING USERS: Once you log in with your NatureShare account, your sightings and photos will migrate with you into the new app. If something doesn’t look right, don’t worry—all of your data is untouched, safe, and secure.

the new interface! 😡 Whatever Audubon paid to have this app redesigned, they lost big-time. The new interface REQUIRES you to create an account, and it's almost impossible to easily find what you're looking for. Dropping my earlier 5-star rating to a generous 2 stars. My wife and I have never been 'bird watchers', but since being able to enjoy our morning coffee outside every morning, we've taken to really enjoying the busy company of our feathered friends. I downloaded this app to help identify the calls, and WOW! This app is terrific.
It helps identify the multitude of calls, shapes, colors, regions, etc, and has really opened up our appreciation and knowledge. To cap it off: We were trying to confirm a Carolina Wren on our patio this morning; I opened the app and started playing the different calls of the Carolina Wren, and the next thing we knew, this little guy had braved hopping right up next to where we were sitting, trying to locate where the calls were coming from! I silenced my phone momentarily, and he flew a few feet away, but as soon as I started the calls back up, here he came again, trying to find his invisible friend! That alone is enough to merit a 5-star rating for this incredible app. IShubes Amazing app UPDATE: I love the app, but both my wife and I.hate.

This update is making bird life miserable for me. I have been using this app for about 10 years. I am an avid birder and rely heavily on it for the bird info where you can search by your location and pull up all the birds in your location that have been reported. Now you can only search by Hotspots and it only shows you daily lists, which are incredibly incomplete.
I just went on vacation to Austin, Texas. I have never been there and tried to figure out what birds I had the potential of seeing. This new app version was completely useless. It kind of made me want to cry because I couldn’t figure out what birds were around me.
Sooooo frustrating! I went to hotspots and the format for that was nearly useless. Why did you take this feature away after 10 years? Now it’s the beginning of migration season up here in New York and I have no way to know what’s coming in. The hotspots don’t help because they are so specific to that area, it won’t apply to where I live and bird. Please bring that feature back ASAP before it ruins the migration season we wait all year for.

Jammin' Jem Bring Back the Old Version I just used the newly updated app for the first time and I already miss the old app. I saw a bird flying that I didn’t recognize so I used the bird ID part of the app and it is worse than the old version.
This new version has too many steps and I don’t like having to go back and forth among all of the characteristics I need to enter. The old version was much easier to use and worked just fine. If I’m out birding and I see a bird I don’t recognize I want to try and ID it quickly, not go through a bunch of steps to try and ID it. The results on this new app don’t seem as accurate as the old one and there seem to be a lot fewer results.
I also don’t like the stories that take up most of the app. I understand you want to share news and information but this app is not the place to do it; or at least have a separate section for it. I also had to create a brand new account to use this app because it said it didn’t recognize my email address. I wish I hadn’t updated the app and I don’t think I’ll be keeping it much longer. It’s not helpful at all.

Under Their Wing Choose one of these colorful birds every day of the week to be your guide. Each one corresponds to an inspirational word, such as joy, courage, and generosity (a key is included for reference). Keep them where you need a little love, or give them to a friend so they can feel it, too. The decorative leaf-shaped plate keeps your 'bird of the day' proudly perched, while the protective box makes for lovely gift-giving and storage.
The birds are formed with ceramic molds and then hand-painted by artisans in Mexico. Assembled in New York.

Artist Susan LeVine was born and raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee where her love of nature was first ignited. A passion for art led her on a journey that began with a year of study in Italy where she was immersed in the beauty of artistic expression and the romance of the Italian culture. Susan's paintings of birds and trees are probably the greatest expression of her love of nature. She feels that nature is always talking to us if we stop to listen.
Susan's product designs come from a desire to uplift the spirits of others and share a sense of wonder and celebration of life. Susan now lives in Santa Barbara, California where she gets out in nature as much as possible.
