Ospreys

The osprey, known scientifically as the genus Pandion, is the sole member of the family Pandionidae. They are birds of prey with a near-universal presence, commonly recognized as a single living species known as Pandion haliaetus, although some experts differ and acknowledge two existing species. Subspecies distinctions have been made, notably the Pandion haliaetus cristatus found along the coastlines and islands of Australia, Southeast Asia, and the Indonesian archipelago. In addition to the living species, there are two extinct ospreys known, namely Pandion homalopteron and Pandion lovensis, which were identified and named in 1976 and 1985, respectively.

Sense of Community
A great app, which is continually being improved. What really comes through is the passion of those behind the app. The sense of community is brilliant, so much help and support provided to new and/or in experienced birders.

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 it’s just a nice wholesome community. I would definitely recommend this for any bird spotter 😄

A Friendly Place
I love using the bird app, I have a pretty good knowledge of birds. But I do have some gaps in it, so it’s nice to have a safe space to check on a sighting to confirm the species. It’s really enjoyable and I love the badges you can collect. It’s like a real life Pokémon go.

Great app for bird lovers
I love this app! It’s a wonderful way to track birding sessions, and also connect you with fellow birders. I also really like the unidentified bird section, it’s a great community tool to help figure out what a never-before-seen bird is!

Great bird recording
For a while I’ve been trying to find an app to easily record bird lists and day out and struggled to find one that I like. Birda is great for this, straightforward and a great community!
