When using my LifeList-Birds App, you might think that even with 900+ bird names built-into the database, your bird’s name is missing! Not so fast, Dr. Peterson. While LifeList-Birds does follow the bird naming convention developed by the American Birding Association, it has been indexed according to the more commonly associated name for each bird. For example, if you’re looking for the Northern Cardinal, you would press the “C” index link (not the “N” index link) which would whisk you to the proper Northern Cardinal entry. This unique and powerful indexing feature in LifeList-Birds saves you the potential headache from hopping around looking for, say, Snowy Egret, Cattle Egret, and Reddish Egret (which might require three separate touches)–rather, just press the “E” index link and all of the egrets are conveniently cataloged in front of you.
Now sighting each of these egrets and entering all citation data, that pleasure is left up to you!
