iBird Journal saves observations of birds with incredible detail. It seamlessly integrates with Mitch Waite Group’s iBird - the world’s most popular line of field guide apps – but can be used with any field guide app. Here is how it works: After you have identified a bird species, simply press the journal button that is found on all species pages. The iBird Journal app starts and opens an “observation” form for the species you started with. Journal does most of the work for you by auto-magically adding your GPS location, the date and time, the weather and more. It’s up to you if you wish add more information or do it later. And Journal is the perfect app for doing “bird counts”, such as the Audubon Christmas Bird Count or the Great Backyard Bird Count.

iBird Journal not only lets you memorialize your bird sightings, it does it in an extremely efficient manner by storing data in a built-in SQLite database. Journal has built-in tools for analyzing your observations and it can export to Excel so you can analyze your observations later using any kind of reporting system.

CHECKLISTS
Most important Journal goes beyond any sighting app on the market by letting you create “checklists” of birds you would LIKE to see. Checklists are perfect for bird outings, tours and bird counts where you know what you are looking for but need a way to instantly check off those birds from a pre-made list.

SOCIAL SHARING
Journal is perfect for sharing observations on social networks – it will share your discoveries on Facebook, Twitter or by email. You can think of iBird Journal as the ultimate rare bird alert app.

REPORTING
The reporting feature in Journal lets you analyze your entire database of observations by date range, list, locations, minimum observed count and species – answering questions like ‘how many times have I seen the Black-necked Stilt between April and June of 2010 in California”?

BACKUP
You’ll never have to worry about losing your observations as Journal will back up and restore your observations one of three ways: by email in its native format, to and from any free Dropbox account or as an eBird compatible CSV file. And if you are a heavy user of eBird you can import any eBird CSV into Journal and from then on use it to send and receive eBird sightings.

iBird Journal is the perfect app to keep a record of all your bird sightings and the ultimate way to memorialize your hobby for the future.
