Boring Bird Sound Identifier

Ever wondered which bird you just heard? Tap the microphone and let Bird Sound listen. Recognition runs entirely on your phone — no internet needed, and your audio never leaves the device. 🎤 INSTANT IDENTIFICATION Tap the microphone and the bird singing around you is identified in seconds. More than 6,500 species worldwide are supported. You can also pick an existing recording and have it analysed. 📍 SMART REGIONAL FILTER Turn location on and the app focuses on species that actually occur in your region and season, so you are far less likely to be shown a bird from the other side of the world. You can switch it off any time. 📖 A GUIDE TO 6,500+ SPECIES Search by common or scientific name, see a photo, listen to recordings, and jump to eBird and Wikipedia. Browse by category: songbirds, owls, water birds and birds of prey. 🗺️ YOUR SIGHTINGS MAP Every bird you identify is pinned to your map along with where you heard it. ❤️ FAVOURITES AND HISTORY Save the species you like and revisit your identification history with confidence scores. 🔊 SAMPLE RECORDINGS Nothing singing nearby? Seven real recordings ship with the app so you can try it right away: great tit, blackbird, chaffinch, robin, tawny owl, cuckoo and nightingale. ⚙️ IN YOUR CONTROL Choose one of three detection sensitivities: see more guesses, or only what the app is confident about.
