Last week a friend of mine told me about a free app called Merlin Bird ID. Perhaps some on here have already got it but if not its worth looking at.

I was up on Axe Edge moors on Monday and in woodland yesterday and I was amazed how many birds it identified by their songs. The larger birds Curlwew, Lapwing etc I can identify by sight and sound but smaller birds that flit around on the ground or are hidden in undergrowth are more difficult.

This app identifies them instantly from their song, although most were unseen!
