Fantastic bird id app. The videos and commentary are very helpful, for experienced birders and beginner - nobody knows all the field marks to look for, great to have them pointed out! Sometimes I just look at the photos to refresh my memory.
I love it
Updating my earlier review. Reloaded the app after listening to the encore interview with Jerry on the ABA podcast. Now, with Android 12, app works great. Very pleased. [Probably a good app, but, 1) video doesn't work with Android 8.1, and 2) developers won't respond to help requests. Save your money...]
Great! Should include owls
Don't say raptor Id interntional and then only show USA distribution
it gives you info about bird of prey and you are calling them Raptors.raptors are super-swimmers,and cannot fly.pls update so you can add owls and real raptors.how to catch owls:just put cams around your house,wait for night(keep them to film the owls)and you will have a chance to see an owl!to find a raptor,you need Mississippi Raptors instead of those boring eagles and hawks.black stripes.1.2 m adults and 0.5 m babies.blue colour.purple patterns.BirdOfPrey🦅.Raptor🦖but thinner and smaller xd.
The content is 5 stars but the poor use of Android interface (e.g. back button exit) is 1 star. You *really* need to fix the UI issues
Very useful ID guide for the birds of prey of North America. Though if you are birding further south, you'll need another guide to identify neotropical raptors, since they are not included here.
Good for identifying raptors in the lower 48
I love the eagle calls.
