How to Use Bird Identification Apps

Bird identification apps like Merlin Bird ID and eBird make it easy to identify birds by their features and calls.

Download a bird identification app on your smartphone, open the app, and use the camera to take a photo of the bird you want to identify.

The app will analyze the photo and provide you with possible bird species matches, along with information about each species.

Record your bird sightings in the app to keep track of the species you've seen and where you saw them.

Share your bird sightings with the birding community by uploading them to platforms like eBird, where other bird enthusiasts can view and learn from your observations.

Next time you spot a bird you can't identify, grab your phone, open your bird identification app, and start recording and sharing your sightings with ease.
