Dear Callan

 

The issues are the calls are borrowed from Brian without acknowledgement or any proper quality control.  Brian was not aware that the app was in the public domain and has only learnt about it this morning.

 

Regards

 

Nigel

There are problems with this app that Mike Davidson and I are trying to follow up on.  We would recommend that you are not tempted to purchase this app for the time being.

G'day all

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere but The Birds of East Africa by Stevenson and Fanshawe is now available as an app complete with calls for about 1000 species. Not cheap but if you have an ipod touch, iphone or ipad it would be a good asset.
