Birda - Birding Made Better

Birda is birdwatching, reimagined.

Birda is more than a birdwatching app, it’s your companion for getting outside, noticing more, and reconnecting with nature in Great Britain, the British Isles, Europe and abroad. Whether you’re spotting your first bird or chasing your next life tick, Birda helps you identify birds, track your progress, and share the experience with a friendly global community.

Modern life pulls us indoors. Birda helps you push back.

From gardens and local patches to national parks and far-flung adventures, Birda makes birding more fun, more rewarding, and easier to stick with.

IDENTIFY BIRDS - Identify birds your way. Use powerful AI to identify birds from photos (even blurry ones), describe a bird in your own words with AI text identification, or explore Birda’s beautifully detailed species guide with photos, bird calls, maps, and key ID tips. Not quite sure yet? Post your sighting and let the Birda community help confirm the ID so you learn faster and grow your confidence with every bird you see.

RECORD YOUR SIGHTINGS - Log birds in seconds, whether it’s a single sighting or a full birding session. Birda keeps everything in one place, so your birding memories don’t fade, they grow.

STAY ORGANISED - Birda automatically records dates and locations, manages your sessions, and creates elegant life lists for you, from garden and patch lists to country and global totals. Spend less time logging and sorting, and more time out in the field discovering new species.
