BirdTRX: Bird Song ID & Diary

BirdTRX — bird song identification and a birding journal in one. Identify birds by song and keep a birdwatching diary you'll actually want to revisit. Most bird apps just tell you what you heard, then forget it. BirdTRX keeps it. Every sighting becomes part of your own field journal — the birds, the place, the weather, the photos, and the memory of the day. If you've ever wanted somewhere to actually keep your birding experiences, not just identify a call and move on, this is for you. BirdTRX is built around rich diary entries: quick to log, and great to look back over.
