Fast & accurate bird ID

dfw birder

I’ve used the Sleuth to identify over 10 birds I saw in both upstate NY and while on vacation in Hilton Head. I even took cell photos of my computer screen of birds and the sleuth id’d quickly. Avid border now very impressed.


Easier to identify birds

This app makes it easier to identify birds. I like to take pictures in my back yard and all I have to do is put the picture on the app and it identifies the bird for me


Loving this new app!

I had just got back from spring birdwatching and discovered this app. It ID’d many of the birds I saw and couldn’t identify. It was so much fun sorting through my pictures with this app to assist me. I love it and highly recommend it. Definitely worth the money to get the help. Can’t wait to try it out on fall birds. Thanks.


I’m impressed

I went to IBird Sleuth during our trip to Alaska for help with some poor pictures of birds I wanted to identify. I was impressed with how well it worked identifying birds. I recommend this product.


Impressed!

I am a bit hard to convince that these kind of apps actually work well. How can a phone help me identify a bird that I can’t identify myself using a high quality bird book? After providing a poorly taken photo of a bird I have been attempting to identify in a different phase of plumage, this app answered the question precisely. Impressed!


Very impressed

I teach in the field of nature connection and I have been waiting for a while to see any usable application of a neural network for nature field guide purposes. I am very impressed with the abilities of this app so far and am very much looking forward to all of the future improvements in this area, bringing together technology and nature connection! Thank you guys for spearheading this in a good way!!!


Simply Amazing

Brilliant app. I do a lot of field bird photography and occasionally get stumped while editing and labeling the photos in Lightroom (especially hummingbirds, fall shorebirds and warblers, young gulls). Even though I have been a life-long avid bird watcher, we cannot be 100% all the time. For the ones stumping me, I take a photo within the app off of my 4K monitor. I have not tried it out yet on fledglings. So far has been flawless in identification.


Exceptional app

I’m an amateur birder with an apple orchard and a 400mm lens, so I had a large library of bird pictures, about 90% of which I could identify. I had a tough time telling the difference between an Eastern Phoebe and an Eastern Wood Peewee. Fortunately, this app ID’d both correctly with 99% confidence. Female Summer Tanagers, hatchling American Robins, Eastern Bluebirds in full molt - all were correctly identified by this app in mere seconds!


This is what’s been missing all along!

Pigface, the one & only

Yes, this is what’s been missing all along! How many times have I seen a new bird and then fumbled through the identification portion in iBird, only to be frustrated by not being able to identify the bird? I’m sure this has happened to everyone. Now don’t get me wrong, iBird Pro is an excellent app. But, iBird Sleuth is an amazing addition to this program. As soon as I installed it, I tried out. Unbelievable! Good call, guys.


Impressive

tagging along

Recently returned from East TX where my spouse focused on birding and I tried to become a better bird photographer. I have over 200 pix that others say are pretty darn good, but do I recall the birds’ name? Along comes this app and it identifies every bird from its photo including a yellow-crowned night heron you can barely see through a thicket and a common pauraque that to me is almost impossible to see through branches and twigs on the ground. For this specific task of identification through existing photos I hope a future version will make returning to the respective album less cumbersome. The App Store is riddled with app reviews describing a complete lack of customer service. Not so with Mitch Waite. I found this group to be responsive and generous in their willingness to help. Once again, those involved in birding prove themselves to be helpful and honest.
