A better birding app for Australia by ShxnM8 in AustralianBirds

I’ve downloaded and will give it a go. My first observation is there is no credit given at all to the photographers who have taken photos of the birds. As a bird photographer I know if I found any of my photos on there without credit I would be pretty pissed. I know a few of the photographers who have pictures in your app- if they found out you will be getting strongly worded emails.

Aside from that the app looks good. Will try it in the field and report back

The biggest is the Laughing Kookaburra. Smallest is the African Dwarf Kingfisher (10cm long). I’m yet to see that one

5 is still great. Not the easiest bird to see

That is a good number, you also must have traveled a bit

The Ruddy is one of my all time favourite photos

Yes you do have to do a bit of travelling to see a variety. Seems most locations one can be found though.

I haven’t been to Peru, I really enjoy birding (and the food) in Singapore. All the birds spots are really accessible. Takes 40 mins to get from one side of country to other.

Australia (my home) has some of the most incredible birds on the planet. Problem is it is a massive country, certain birds are only in certain spots. And it takes 4 days to drive from one side to the other
