Audubon Sampler - A Free Guide to North American Nature

Put nature at your fingertips, no matter where you are. 
Created in affiliation with the National Audubon Society
This free app introduces the Audubon Guides to Birds, Mammals, Wildflowers, and Trees. It contains 40 examples from the over 3,758 species found on these four comprehensive, interactive, digital field guide applications.
The Audubon Guides applications are elegant, intuitive tools for identifying and understanding North American nature, from chickadees to condors, bats to bears, lilies to lupines, and pines to palms.
A total of 40 species are fully covered in this app, representing examples of the over 3,758 species, 7,000 high quality photographic images, thousands of range maps, and 2,300 bird sounds that are in the full Audubon Bird Guide application. Each species included in this app has the full descriptive content found in the complete applications, except that the bird sounds are limited to two. (There are up to 14 bird sounds for each bird species in the full bird application.) The species information in the full applications includes the content of seven National Audubon Society Field guides. The species descriptions contain information about identification, behavior, range, habitat, family descriptions, taxonomy and much more.
Unparalleled Content Every species in the Audubon Guide is fully illustrated and described, all accessed by fast and easy navigation.
