I have been wanting to create this video for a while. I often get asked to recommend an ID book for bird life of Portugal and I always ask, “Do you have a smartphone?”. Of course, often the answer is yes and my reply is to download the amazing Merlin Bird ID app by The Cornell Lab.
This app is totally free and very powerful, its Photo ID feature really sets it apart from other Bird ID apps. There are other apps I use, particularly the locally developed FollowBirds App which I will hopefully be reviewing soon.
This video is a bit long but worth the watch if you are interested in identifying bird species using its fantastic Photo ID Feature.
The app is available for both Android and IOS and can be downloaded from the links below;
In case you are wondering, no, I am not being paid by The Cornell Lab or anyone else for this video, I just wanted to share how great it is.
{Remember to watch in HD if possible}In case you’re wondering about the photo I snapped of the Hoopoe, here it is.
