About SolentBirds
SolentBirds is a citizen science project designed to help scientists gather data on, and gain a greater understanding of, how birds use the area around the Solent network.
Currently, the degree to which overwintering waders and wildfowl move around the Solent between feeding and roosting areas is poorly understood. The data collected by this app will help us to fill in the blanks and ultimately enable us to understand how the loss or change in use of a site could negatively affect the network of sites that the birds rely upon. This will lead to improved decision making about development in the area and help to ensure that the right balance of sites remains available for the important bird life of the area.
This app enables you to record a single ad-hoc sighting of a species or to survey an entire area. There is a built in ID guide to all the species of interest, including text descriptions, photo galleries and the calls of each bird.

Design specifically to record observations for the Solent Bird Studies project. But could be used anywhere in uk. User friendly and informative. Works perfectly.

Loved the app! Really interesting and informative. It was intuitive and really easy to use to record sightings. A nice way to learn about our local birds while making a difference to wider projects.

As an avid bird watcher in the solent area I have been after an app to seemingly satisfy my outdoor needs. Excited to use this as it compliments my long lense and engraved custom made Attenborough binoculars. Now safe in the knowledge that after 5 years I can stop listening to my birds best impersonation of a constipated pterodactyl. The app in that regard has saved her life as implementation of a crack team or the A team to take her out was looking expensive to say the least. Shame as she needs shooting!!
