Cornell lab of Ornithology phone App called “Merlin”

[Ira Runyan]

Cornell lab of Ornithology has produced a cell phone App called “Merlin”, which is a Free, instant bird ID help for 3,000+ North, Central, and South American, and European birds.

One feature of the Merlin Bird ID App allows you to snap a photo of a bird, or pull one in from your camera roll, and Merlin Photo ID will offer a short list of possible matches. Photo ID works completely offline, so you can even identify birds in the photos you take when you are far from cell service.
