What's that bird? Ask Merlin—the world’s leading app for birds. Just like magic, Merlin Bird ID will help you solve the mystery. Merlin Bird ID helps you identify birds you see and hear. Merlin is unlike any other bird app—it's powered by eBird, the world’s largest database of bird sightings, sounds, and photos. Merlin offers four fun ways to identify birds. Answer a few simple questions, upload a photo, record a singing bird, or explore birds in a region. Whether you’re curious about a bird you’ve seen once or you’re hoping to identify every bird you can find, the answers are waiting for you with this free app from the renowned Cornell Lab of Ornithology. WHY YOU’LL LOVE MERLIN • Expert ID tips, range maps, photos, and sounds help you learn about the birds you spot and build birding skills. • Discover a new bird species each day with your own personalized Bird of the Day • Get customized lists of birds you can find where you live or travel - anywhere in the world! • Keep track of your sightings—build your personal list of the birds you find MACHINE LEARNING MAGIC • Powered by Visipedia, Merlin Sound ID and Photo ID uses machine learning to identify birds in photos and sounds. Merlin learns to recognize bird species based on training sets of millions of photos and sounds collected by birders at eBird.org, archived in the Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. • Merlin delivers the most accurate results thanks to experienced birders, who curate and annotate sightings, photos, and sounds, who are the true magic behind Merlin. AMAZING CONTENT • Choose bird packs that contain photos, songs, and calls, and identification help for anywhere in the world, including Mexico, Costa Rica, South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, India, Australia, Korea, Japan, China, and more. The Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s mission is to interpret and conserve the Earth’s biological diversity through research, education, and citizen science focused on birds and nature. We are able to offer Merlin for free thanks to the generosity of Cornell Lab members, supporters, and citizen-science contributors.}

Great product! A little slow to load recordings for review.

This app is great. I know quite a few bird song so can often say yes Merlin is correct. It is when it ids a bird that I can’t hear that it shines. That might be due to my failing hearing. The only thing missing is the ability to save the recordings to the cloud as sometimes I use an iPhone other times my iPad. It would be great if the app used iCloud then I’d have one set of recordings across both devices.

I use it a lot but haven’t been able to troubleshoot the offline functionality for months - it doesn’t work without internet or cell connection. I’ve tried all the tricks they recommend without success. It’s a bit disappointing.

What a find- sitting in the garden and listening to the birds was a joy but now I know what type of bird I am listening too. So easy to use - just sit quietly, record the singing and it identifies the bird, each time they sing the identity of the bird lights up. Love it!

I use this app frequently, and really enjoy it. However I am often frustrated by its inability to recognize a known siting. I am looking at a bird, I know what it is, but Merlin won’t recognize it “in my area“ so I can’t add it to my Life List. This is not a problem with the “Photo ID“ function, but it is not always easy to take that photo…

This application is so well done, it should be an example for other developers of how to do things right. One of the best apps I’ve ever used. Ever.

I use this app almost daily. Especially with the ability to identify by sound, it enables me to identify the birds I can’t see. I’ve used it all over the country, in Canada, and even Iceland. My. Favorite. App. !

I really enjoyed casual birding before and this app has made me love it. It helps you to learn to identify different calls and helps you see new birds all the time. Would recommend for anyone who enjoys the wonder of birds. It takes up a bit of storage and I don’t care at all. So worth it, thank you!!!!

A great app. I have been a birder for over 40 years and this app is very helpful AND you get free birdpacks to download to your phone. First rate app.
