But even without that it there is enough info. on each bird that makes it an excellent app for the ipod/phone system. I hesitated to buy it, as I don't usually have a field guide in the field in NS, but I have actually used it quite a bit.Most versions are $9.99, and the pro version is $29.99, on Itunes, so for that price it's pretty good value.
