Birdwatcher\'s Diary

Birdwatcher\\\'s Diary 4.0 is a iPhone Lifestyle App which is developed by one app publisher.

The perfect birdwatcher's field companion. In seconds, you can make a note of birds you see or hear, including time and exact location (both automatically recorded), with additional field notes if you wish. Later, you can review the sightings as a list or on a map, and upload the recorded information to desktop software and online databases like eBird, and view your sightings on Google Maps. Birdwatcher's Diaryâ„¢ is designed to be useful for your "big day" efforts, Christmas Bird Counts, and for your everyday birding outings alike.

Features:
o A simple tap marks the bird as seen; if you are counting birds, further taps increment the count, with a built-in calculator available for large increments.
o Enhanced Intelliscrollâ„¢ switches between one- and two-letter alphabet tabs for superfast scrolling to the desired bird; no need to scroll through 100 birds starting with "S".
o Sightings can be marked as visual or "heard only".
o Built-in, user-configurable "phrase list" makes adding notes to your sightings ("Breeding plumage", "Juvenile", etc.) a simple matter of tapping and not typing.
o Coordinates can be recorded automatically for every bird (GPS-equipped unit recommended) or only for specific sightings.
o Recording of information (time, coordinates) for multiple sightings of the same species is optional (default records information only for the first sighting).
o Sort birds by Last Name, First Name, Bird-Banding Code, Time Seen, or Taxonomic Order.
o Quickly switch between viewing all birds, only those seen or heard, or only those not seen or heard. View sightings at all locations or only the current location.
o Save and retrieve sightings by day.
o Automatic generation of "life lists" containing all sightings, or sightings restricted by state, county, birding location, or by words or phrases in the sighting notes (e.g., "breeding pair") or trip notes (e.g., "Audubon field trip").
o Output data via ftp, email, clipboard, or Apple's File Sharing using standard fixed formats (eBird, Google Maps) or totally custom formats including any information in any order.
o Input master bird lists or lists of previous sightings from simple text files.
o View sightings on a map on the device, or upload the information and create your own custom Google Map to view from a desktop.
o Preconfigured with U.S., U.K., and Mexico bird lists, but easily loaded with any custom list, with the ability to add (or delete) birds from the list. Store multiple lists in the software and quickly switch between them.
o By installing (or simply entering) new lists, software can be used for sightings of anything - birds, reptiles, mammals, etc.
o Fully internationalized with date formats, accented or non-Latin characters, etc.

o Post individual sightings or a complete list of the day's sightings directly to Facebook or to your local birding listserve, complete with a Google map of the sightings
o Improvements to "multiple sightings" mode let you more easily change counts without creating new "sightings". User-specifiable minimum distance or time to generate separate sightings
o Some situations in which the count of sightings on the top line of the screen was incorrect have been corrected.
