Audubon Birds: A Field Guide to North American Birds

Usually sells for $10, free today only in the Amazon Android App store. Likely geo limited to US or N. Amer countries.

Quote:

Identify North American birds with quality photos, bird songs and calls, range maps, descriptions, and more. Audubon Birds is your essential guide to identifying common and rare species of birds in your backyard or in the field. Great for seasoned and amateur bird watchers, Audubon Guides for Android places nature at your fingertips--no bulky books.

Note: Audubon Birds has 529 MB of additional content available as an optional free download. Because of the large file size, if you choose to download the content we recommend using a strong Wi-Fi connection--the bulk download is not a requirement for using the app. This application is not optimized for large tablets.

It's Audubon's birthday today

koland · 04-26-2012, 02:24 PM

Yep!

99 cents for the app on iTunes or from Google Play, for those who don't Amazon or want it on both platforms. Looks like most of the rest of the Audubon apps are 1/2 price at Amazon and Google (spotty sale at iTunes, some still full price).

Other Apps are Reduced!!

For iOS devices, there are more free apps in the App Store:

Audubon Birds of Central Park
Audubon Owls of North America
Beidler Forest -- about the Audubon Center located there

Audubon's book - The Birds of America - is available online and as a $0.99 app in the App Store.

Thanks!! I'm a Sibley birder (I paid a whopping $29.99 for the Sibley app) but that didn't stop me from snapping up Audubon Birds and Audubon Birds Central Park for my iphone.

(and this was my 1000th post, what do I win???)

Well, normally you'd get a promotion to "Wizard", but looks like you've got a custom user-title already.

elemenoP · 04-26-2012, 09:40 PM

Oooh, if I take off my custom user-title, will I get "Wizard?" And how many do you need to get the extra "z" like you?? How many until Wizzzard? (well that sounds a little sleepy...)

eP

ATDrake · 04-26-2012, 09:43 PM

Yeah, if you reset your user-title to the default setting, then you'll be a Wizard.

Mine's actually a custom title (and a Discworld joke). I did wait until I got to 1000 posts before applying it (and I'm kind of tempted to add a few extra zeds for every extra thousand I go up).

koland · 04-26-2012, 10:22 PM

Hmm... perhaps I need a few more zzzz's?

Thanks. Got it for my iphone. Hopefully some day I'll have an iPad.

Awesome... just bought the iOS version on sale for $.99. I've always been a bird fan, but always neglect to lug around my heavy bird book!

On a related note, Peterson Birds of North America is currently $0.99 (regularly $14.99) in the iTunes app store.
