BIRDBASE AND BIRDAREA

WORLD CLASS BIRDING SOFTWARE

We produce serious software for people with a serious interest in birding. But the software's careful design, comprehensive on-screen help, and click-by-click users manual tutorials make it very easy to operate, even by someone who is both a beginning computer user and a beginning birder. Furthermore, the adaptability of the software ensures that a beginner will never outgrow it. And no user will ever be forced to discard his/her sightings records, and start recording them over again, due to the frequently occurring changes in bird names and taxonomy. BirdBase and BirdArea handle all such changes.
