Quick portable access to information means no more guessing of bird types. Gary (5 stars) This was so easy to use in my 7th grade classes. Plus many kids wanted to get it to use on their own. Cool to have kids doing science on their own! Very nice app (5 stars) Love the sound feature. Nice maps. Easy to navigate. Educational for just an amateur curious about the birds outside the kitchen window! And it's free!!! Thank you.
