We're back with the Global Birdfair Challenge for 2024! We're partnering with Opticron to encourage you to head out and log 15 species (or more!) in the county of Rutland, United Kingdom during the Birdfair week - 8th to 14th July.

All completed challenge entrants will enter a prize draw to be in with a chance of winning some fantastic Opticron Natura BGA ED 8x42 binoculars worth ยฃ379.00.

Join today to take part!

Head out, head up and see how many different species you can see at the 2024 Global Birdfair! You just need to log 15 species in the county of Rutland to complete the challenge.

This challenge is for anyone with a Birda account. This challenge is for tickable species only. You can read more about tickable species here.

This challenge starts and ends based on the UK time zone. All individual species logged within the county of Rutland will count towards this challenge and will be included in any leaderboard placement. All sightings must be logged before midnight on the day the challenge ends.

Be honest with yourself and other birders, but above all, respectful of them and any other outdoor users, everywhere โ€“ especially online. If you didnโ€™t see it (or hear it), please donโ€™t put it on Birda.

Awesome App
I really enjoy using this app! It is such a friendly community of bird-lovers who are happy to help if I need ID advice. Itโ€™s been great motivation to get outdoors and go birding more! 10/10 ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Very Wholesome App
Joined this app with a new interest in watching birds to help me find out what I was spotting. The community is very active in helping identify birds which is great and everyone is very kind so itโ€™s just a nice wholesome community. I would definitely recommend this for any bird spotter ๐Ÿ˜„

Really great app
Itโ€™s easy to use and itโ€™s fun to log the birds you notice on a walk or just in your garden. Thereโ€™s a option to record the birds you see in a session which is really nice. Good excuse to stop for a while and just watch birds. I am also enjoying the information part where you can find out fact about birds from all over the world.

Friendly and helps to identify birds
Great birding app, good for logging your sightings, also has nice species guide. I'm enjoying the social aspect more than I expected, everyone seems friendly and helps to identify unknown birds. Good mix of newbies and experienced users.
Jane N
A great app
Enjoying it immensely and finding it useful too. Recording the different birds and counting them is showing me how the present climate is affecting them all. I've trebled the numbers by planting native hedging. A great app.
Louise L
Easy to use and accurate
Love this app. It is easy to use and accurate, Their backup communication is really good. I noted a missing species. All through the process, I was kept informed about the progress in correcting the information. I now have the corrected, updated version. ๐Ÿ˜ Thanks!
Carrie
Makes you want to spot birds more
I think this app is fun. It makes you want to spot birds more so I guess in a way it encourages you to get out and about instead of sitting in front of the TV.
