Birding Via Mic(圖1)-速報App

Birding Via Mic is an android app that identifies birds by their songs. Technically it doesn't differentiate between songs and calls. You can record a bird singing, play the song back, edit the recording, and (hopefully) identify the bird. You can download songs and the web screen gives you a few sites that are available. This is not a structured bird song collection. I hope it will become a collection of world class birder's favorite songs. It is a tool that can help you build a bird song collection and help you identify birds.

First, I want to borrow the phrase "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" and modify it to read "A bird recorded locally is worth two on the web." Not only the local bird variations but the microphone you use play a large part in identification. That said, by downloading, and defining the birds the app will be able to recognize many of the birds that you record.

There are NO songs in this app. ZERO. You have to record them or load them from another app and define them. There are currently four other apps that are associated with this app: Birding Via Mic New World, ... Old World, ... Orient Australasia. The songs were selected by the recordists as their favorites (at my request) and ... North American Common (the songs were selected by me.) These apps contain songs for their respective region (called YourRegion below) but no functionality other than supply this app with the songs they contain. You will need to install one (or more if desired) of these and transfer the songs to this app.

This app has three main areas: 1) Database management which allows you to modify, edit and maintain your bird list, 2) Identifying birds from your recordings (given enough data), 3) The songs supplied with this app.
