Index of Subjects Hello Fawne, and all, Someone else on the list may correct me on this, but I don't think there is yet a worldwide birding app available for the iPad. If there was, I suspect it would be fairly costly and also take up a lot of memory. Here is what I found after checking theI just checkin the app store. There are now several companies offering birding apps, but all are by region. I use iBird Explorer Pro for North America. iBird comes in regional versions as well - they are less expensive and require less memory. However, I travel across N.A., so I bought the North America version. It is regularly around $30, but seems to be on sale for around $20 at the moment. I see that iBird now has a version for the UK and Ireland and it is priced at about $14. BirdGuides Ltd. has some apps available, but again, they are by region. For example, there is a Birds of Brazil app available for 12.99 which is about 700 MB in size (some of the Bird apps are quite large as they include photos, audio, etc...) I see that the same company offers a Birds of Northern Europe for 20.99, and a Birds of Britain and Ireland for 17.99. If you do a search for Birds and a country, for example, "birds africa" in the app store, you may find other guides. For example, I just tried that search and came uo with a Birds of Africa app by Oren Meiri for around $10. There is also a Peterson's Birds of North America app available for 14.99, and Audubon guides for North America and also by region for around the same price. I don't think either of those are available as versions for other countries as yet. Hope some of that info helps. bev wigney Round Hill, NS (in summer) --- On Sun, 8/28/11, fawne atkinson <heronsmist@eastlink.ca> wrote: > From: fawne atkinson <heronsmist@eastlink.ca> > Subject: [NatureNS] world birding app for ipad > To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca > Received: Sunday, August 28, 2011, 12:10 PM > > > > > > > > Good day, > > My son just got a new ipad > and was wondering if > anyone could recommend a good worldwide birding application > for him to use.
