    Default Merlin bird song ID app

    It is phenomenal.

    Just picked out a Cooper’s hawk from a very agitated group (murder) of crows. Clear as day when I played the recording back, but would have missed it.

    Free.

    I am thinking of how nice it would have been to have an app like these 40years ago when I first heard that faint sound of a “lawnmower” sputtering to life in a remote campsite on the AT, or not hat ethereal flute-like sound every hiker hears — not to mention my all time favorite song of the bird I now know to be a white-throated sparrow.

    Love my Merlin. It picked up 3 species of woodpeckers on one of my neighborhood walks.

    My wife is addicted to her Merlin app.

    And years ago we had a White Throated Sparrow singing right by our cabin every morning at 4AM. Pretty, but impossible to sleep through in case you want to sleep past 4 AM.
