Hawk sounds app2/25/2024 ![]() I live in the north, so I have one set for snowy owls!Ĥ) If you see something unfamiliar, the app can help you narrow down your choices based on characteristics like state, time of year, size, color, shape, voice, flight pattern, tail shape, habitat, and wing shape. I keep my life list here and though I am relatively new to birding, I’ve added almost 60 new birds to my life list in the two years I’ve had this on my phone!

I downloaded this app to help identify the calls, and WOW! this app is terrific. ![]() My wife and I have never been "bird watchers", but since being able to enjoy our morning coffee outside every morning, we've taken to really enjoying the busy company of our feathered friends. Dropping my earlier 5-star rating to a generous 2 stars. The new interface REQUIRES you to create an account, and it's almost impossible to easily find what you're looking for.
