My 2yr old grandson let out a scream the other day and the app picked up an eurasian crane! lol. Played it back and they were identical.

My pup was panting after a run and it said it was a magpie

People on the meateater podcast have been raving about it . You hold your phone out with the app open and recording and it will tell you every bird noise around you and identify each bird . If theirs

I had a really interesting evening caught all these birds in the app also a common nighthawk never had one of them before and a rare according to the app common firecrest, also see a green woodpecker

Had a good haul today 14 different species I went over to this place in the link below I would normally walk for miles over there but serious thunderstorms this was just hanging the app out of the car

After Robins and Blackbirds, chiffchaffs have been most commonly heard where I am now

Same here mate in a number of different locations even blackcaps' in the local park though it does border some woodland. My mate at work showed what birds he had picked up from his garden that farmland is at the bottom of even a goldcrest .

We get the odd blackcap on the feeders and a more aggressive bird you’ve yet to find for it’s size .Makes a robin look like an angel .

Saw a brambling yesterday and found a wagtails nest 3 eggs .Always good to just sit and watch especially killing squigs at same time .

We are currently working on a very old property ,flag stone courtyard and ashlar walls .The owner said he had a few house martins arrive and so I suggested putting down a bag of top soil suitably dampened to allow nest building without the birds having to travel miles for materials .Went from two pairs Wednesday  to 32 pairs nesting Friday .The twittering they make is captivating tbh .
