Finally, a field guide that’s as light as a feather
iBird Explorer Canada is an innovative field guide to 685 birds of the provinces and territories of Canada. This is up from 473 in the previous version. A self-contained ebook for the iPhone and iPod touch, iBird Canada puts thousands of pages of expert birding information at your fingertips, and includes hand drawn illustrations, professional photographs, range maps, playable calls and more, for bird species found in Alberta, the Aleutians, Baffin Island, British Columbia, Ellesmere Island, Labrador, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Newfoundland Island, Nova Scotia, Nunavut, Northwestern Territories, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Saskatchewan and Yukon.
Notable features of this new version are:
■ Attributes are grouped into basic, head and flight related area.
■ Updated state and province bird lists using official references.
■ Shake your device to automatically play a random bird song.
■ Taxonomic and Alphabetical family sort options on Browse screen.
Standard Features:
■ Parameter-driven search engine, lets you identify birds quickly, so you spend more time observing and less time reading
■ Bird songs and calls, loud enough to bring the bird right to you (1)
■ Hand-drawn full sized color illustrations
■ Multiple professional photographs of most birds
■ Extensive identification, behavior, and habitat information
■ Full color range maps
■ Links to detailed Wiki pages and hundreds of Flickr photos for each bird
■ Bookmark birds as favorites for fast access
■ Species, common and family names in English, French and Spanish (text is English)
■ Lifetime updates to bird information
iBird uses a unique parametric search engine to help you identify birds quickly. Narrow down possible species by selecting from: location (state), shape, size, habitat, primary color, secondary color, backyard feeder status, family, bill shape, bill length, head pattern, crown color, wing shape and flight pattern. Or search by keyword, Latin name and band code.
When you have more time on your hands, browse through the sumptuous illustrations, professional photographs and comprehensive expert birding facts.
As a standalone iPhone app, iBird Canada does not require an Internet connection for access to the rich media information in its database. This does mean that the application is large, so please be patient when downloading from the iTunes app store.

What's new
New in iBird 2.2
Every app now has a home page. This page shows icons for any other iBird apps you own as well as shortcuts to apps we think you may wish to know more about. If an app has an update you will see icons for higher versions with a $ badge on it.
New Backup and Restore for all apps (found in Settings) so you can save your favorites and notes. The backup is global to all versions.
New Birdipedia link uses much better content. Be sure and check it out.
Fixed a bug with single family species not returning to browse.
Some but not all songs have descriptive text rather than just simple "phonetics". This will be expanded.
Some birds have multiple vocalizations, for example see Black-capped Chickadee, American Robin and Blue Jay.
