Description

Only app designed specifically for the islands of Hawaii and Palau.

Ready for exotic birds? iBird Hawaii and Palau is the only 100% complete app guide to birds of the Hawaiian Islands as well as the environmentally sensitive island nation of Palau. The app, which contains 228 species of Hawaiian birds and 169 species of Palauan birds offers all the features that contribute to making iBird the most popular birding app in the world. Like our top of the line iBird Ultimate app, iBird Hawaii and Palau offers the popular Birds Around Me (BAM) GPS feature as well as the Percevia™ Smart Search feature.

More Details of What’s New: bit.ly/ibird-whatsnew

In 2008 iBird broke new ground as it turned the iPhone into a field guide app that identifies birds and plays their songs. Featured in Apple’s television commercials, it started a revolution that made iBird the most respected birding app in the world.

** NOTE If you would like to try out iBird at no expense, check the newly released iBird LITE Free Guide to Birds of North America. It contains all the features of paid iBird Ultimate, but includes just 50 species. And it’s completely FREE. **

Whether you are an experienced birder or a beginner, iBird Hawaii and Palau is the most authoritative guide to these exotic birds.

Features

■ Separate databases for Hawaii and Palau allow doing independent searching and identification as well as separate species accounts and song libraries.

■ iBird now takes advantage of the high-resolution retina displays of the iPhone and iPad so the screen shows more information than ever.

■ Back up and sync favorites and notes with iCloud and share with all your devices and your friends.

■ Search by common name, Latin name and even band code.

■ Comprehensive seasonal and migratory range maps include subspecies.

■ The Conservation Status search attribute lets you filter birds by 6 threat levels including Least Concern, Near Threatened, Vulnerable, Endangered, Critically Endangered and Extinct in the Wild. The standard is maintained by Birdlife International and is called the IUCN Red List.

My favorite birdwatching app

You can search by soooo many features. Tail shape! Song type! Prominent color! All of these have enabled me to ID birds that would have been otherwise unknowable.

Was expecting more

In the area to learn more in how to search and other ‘learn more’ links, the page says we’re sorry. Yep, I’m sorry I can’t learn more to how to optimize how I use this app. :) Some of the birds near me, Black-necked Stilt, and other endangered species don’t appear on the list of Hawaiian birds or the birds near me. Yet I know they here are because I’ve seen them. Realizing I may not be searching right because the link doesn’t work.

All I Need

IBird answers all my questions and informs me of birds location and status.
