Maybe you are wondering why you’d want to invest in an expensive app that identifies which feathery pest just pooped on your car or flew into your skyscraper window. If you are wondering that, then this app is obviously not for you. You don’t like birds. Please stop reading about this app, because you’ll be wasting your time.
If you like birds however and you have all sorts of money to spend on an app, then you should continue reading. Yes, you. The person who sits outside before the sun rises on insanely cold mornings with binoculars stuck to your face.
“Oh, I’ve never seen that bird before. What could it be?” you’ll wonder. The problem is you forgot your bulky bird identification book in the car. You want to scream, “I wish I had my bird identification book on me!” but that would scare away the birds, so you keep quiet, calm down and remember you’ve got an app on your iPod Touch with an insane set of features that will allow you find that bird easily.
