Gamified Bird Identification App?
Gamified Bird Identification App?
Does anyone know of a Duolingo-like birding application that gamifies bird identification?
(Particularly for Android and extra points for sound ID in addition to visual ID)
You're viewing a single thread.
I don't know of a gamified version (but would love to see one), but for help identifying, validating, and tracking sightings you may find the Merlin app from TheCornellLab useful.
Merlin is never able to figure out my location so I've been using Audubon.
That's strange that a single app would struggle with that. And this is with location permissions allowed for the app?
Yep. Definitely weird. I tried all the basic troubleshooting stuff but no luck.
Oh, I definitely use and love the major apps. I was thinking more in terms of repetition and reward to aid memorization.
There are numerous birds i can identity by sight or sound rather easily, but... I still struggle with mixing many smaller finch sized birds; females and juveniles against similar colored males of another species; and how numerous calls sound very alike.
Having an app to drill and test me would be wonderful.
