About this app

Professional sound collection for 515 bird species inhabiting Europe - from the Atlantic Ocean to the Urals, and from the Arctic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea. The list of bird species included in the app can be viewed at https://ecosystema.ru/eng/apps/17golosa_eu.htm

TERRITORY OF USE
The application covers most of the territory of Europe and can be successfully used in the most part of Northern, Western, Central, Southern and Eastern Europe, including Scandinavia, Baltic States, France, Spain, Balkan countries, Transcaucasia, Northern Kazakhstan and other adjacent territories.

20 EUROPEAN LANGUAGES
The app composed on 20 European languages, including English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Hellenic and others. The user can choose any of these languages.

BIRDS CALLS
For each of the 515 bird species, the app provides one combined recording, including male songs and several most typical calls – alarm, aggression, interaction, contact and flight calls, etc. Each of the recordings can be played in four different ways: 1) once, 2) in a loop without interval, 3) in a loop with an interval of 10 seconds, 4) in a loop with an interval of 20 seconds.

PHOTOS AND DESCRIPTIONS
For each species, a several photos of the bird in nature (male, female or immature, bird in flight), distribution maps and eggs are given, as well as a text description of the appearance, behavior, features of reproduction and feeding, distribution and migrations.

VOICE IDENTIFIER
The application has a built-in polytomic bird Voice Identifier (Identification Filter), which helps to determine the unknown bird by its appearance and voice. You can select the geographical region, the size of the bird, the location of the singing bird, the type of sound signal, and the time of a day. The Identifier will help you to narrow down the range of species for unknown bird.

QUIZ
The app has a built-in Quiz, which can train you to recognize birds by their voices and appearance. You can play the quiz repeatedly – the questions for recognizing species alternate in random order and are never repeated! The difficulty of the Quiz can be adjusted – change the number of questions, change the number of answers to choose from, turn on and off bird images.

IN-APP PURCHASES
The main functions of the application are free - for each species of bird, you can view its image and text description and add species to Favorites (these functions are available offline), as well as play a recording of its voice (if you have an Internet connection and no more than 1 time per minute). Paid functions allow unlimited use of the Identification Filter and Quiz, open access to additional color images, and also make it possible to play all recordings of bird voices offline. You can purchase access to all bird species (the "All Birds" group, $12.00), as well as to any geographical ($7.00) or systematic ($2.50) group of birds.

THE VOICES OF BIRDS CAN BE PLAYED IN NATURE!
In the presence of the Internet, the voices of birds can be played directly in nature. After paying for in-app purchases, all functions can be used offline, including in the areas without the Internet - on ornithological excursions, walks in the country, on expeditions, hunting or fishing.

THE APPLICATION CAN BE TRANSFERRED TO THE MEMORY CARD (after installation).

THE APPLICATION IS DESIGNED FOR:
* birdwatchers and professional ornithologists;
* university students and faculty at on-site seminars;
* teachers of secondary schools and additional (out-of school) education;

* employees of nature reserves, national parks and other nature protected areas;

The interface is a bit blunt, but it's a nice and extensive birding app with a good amount of information, photos and sounds. I like the quiz option. 22 languages available! Suggestions: (1) Latin names always visible next to the common names; (2) search by family; (3) organize all settings (language, purchases) in a single menu.

Thank you for your rating and feedback! 1) if we add one more line for latin name, it will block the picture, 2) ok,I'll think about it, 3) Languages (choice) and Purchases each have their own icon on the main screen, and they should be different. And sorry for design! I am just one single author and I am an ornithologist, but not a designer :)

An excellent App, beautiful pictures and thorough descriptions of each bird, complete with the birdsong for each bird. My only small criticism is to search for a bird you have to know its correct name. All in all very good 👍

Thank you! In the Search panel you can use not only scientific names, but also synonyms and old names.

Does not attempt to recognise bird song. You choose your geographical area and it gives you about 300 soundtracks to listen to, each requiring multiple clicks. What are they thinking? How about at least putting them in order of commonness?

Yes, this is not an automatic bird songs determinant, like "shazam". And this is written in the app description in Google Play. But the application has an Identification Filter which can help with birds sounds recognition. In it you can choose the most suitable sounds features of the bird you want to identify.
