Customer Reviews
Hmm
For the money they charged for this app I think there was very little content.
WB
There are not many birds listed and many of the ones in our garden are not listed
Disappointed!
Love the fact that there are good images and calls but there are lack of birds on the list??? Most of the birds I wanted to look up aren't on here? Please put more birds on!!!
