Merlin Bird ID transformed my personal birding journey, turning every outdoor walk into an exciting treasure hunt for new species. This magical experience of discovery and wonder directly inspired BirdTab's creation—I wanted to bring that same sense of joy and curiosity to our digital spaces.

Give us the old Merlin back! The sound ID in the May 2024 update is unreliable - common birds are being misidentified or not identified at all.

Feels like magic! This seemed impossible when I started bird watching.

Haven't had the chance to test the sound id on any birds yet, but I've downloaded a few packs (their directory of local birds basically) and I love listening to all the call variations. I love how each call comes with the name and date someone recorded it. Feels more personal and crowdsourced. I don't know how new calls are added but hopefully I'll be able to record something and get my recording in there. Overall, it's a nice quick spark of joy in my day.
