extraordinaire

Cette application est extraordinaire car elle propose le son des oiseaux. Cest un excellent "plus". Le seul inconvénient, est quil ny a pas de possibilité de faire une recherche à partir du nom latin. Achetez le !

Belle application, mais

Belle application complète, mais inexploitable en Europe, car orientée uniquement vers lAmérique du Nord.

Bella aplicación para los amantes de las aves,

Costoso pero merece la pena, buenos dibujos, aún un poco demasiado detallado, pero muy buenos. Aplicación funciona a la primera sin fallos sobre iPad 4ª gen. Menos publicidad porfavor, y estáis rozando la perfección. Aplicación destinada claramente a uso aficionado.

good base but needs to fulfil promise

images are top notch. app works but needs refinement. the makers have promised the improvements needed such as more flexible searching and notetsking ability. It would also be nice to zoom in on images similar to the zoom in the Photo app.

Better eBird Books available

Pluses + bird illustrations are high quality National Geographic illustrations + song recordings included & easily accessible + less costly than competition Minuses -plates are *much* too small (about 1/4-1/2 the size of the same plates in the field guide) to see real detail -search frustrating (four different search types, if you search for "Goldfinch" hits only appear in one) -lists similar species, but does not provide links to them to do immediate comparisons

There are Much Better Available

I purchased this app thinking itd have to be great - I mean, its from National Geographic right? Meh, not so much. There are no photos at all. In my opinion, illustrations are an artists interpretation of what the bird looks like, and quite often dont even really look the bird - I like the photos for comparison. There is also no way to make any sort of list. I wanted to select the birds that I have in my area and add them to some sort of list, but you cant do that in this app. I bought this app and iBird Explorer Canada - there is no comparison. Buy iBird and leave this one here (unless you want to use this is a back up to the other). I get the feeling that Nat Geo rushed to get this in to the App Store and didnt really put the effort in to developing it. It should be a lot better than it is.

Not the best dollar value

This book does not have very many photographs as I was expecting. In fact I havent found ANY at this point. They are all sketches. It is hard to navigate. iBird Explorer is FAR BETTER.
