Description

What's that bird? Ask Merlin—the world’s leading app for birds. Just like magic, Merlin Bird ID will help you solve the mystery.

Merlin Bird ID helps you identify birds you see and hear. Merlin is unlike any other bird app—it's powered by eBird, the world’s largest database of bird sightings, sounds, and photos.

Merlin offers four fun ways to identify birds. Answer a few simple questions, upload a photo, record a singing bird, or explore birds in a region.

Whether you’re curious about a bird you’ve seen once or you’re hoping to identify every bird you can find, the answers are waiting for you with this free app from the renowned Cornell Lab of Ornithology.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE MERLIN
• Expert ID tips, range maps, photos, and sounds help you learn about the birds you spot and build birding skills.
• Discover a new bird species each day with your own personalized Bird of the Day
• Get customized lists of birds you can find where you live or travel - anywhere in the world!

MACHINE LEARNING MAGIC
• Powered by Visipedia, Merlin Sound ID and Photo ID uses machine learning to identify birds in photos and sounds. Merlin learns to recognize bird species based on training sets of millions of photos and sounds collected by birders at eBird.org, archived in the Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
• Merlin delivers the most accurate results thanks to experienced birders, who curate and annotate sightings, photos, and sounds, who are the true magic behind Merlin.

AMAZING CONTENT
• Choose bird packs that contain photos, songs, and calls, and identification help for anywhere in the world, including Mexico, Costa Rica, South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, India, Australia, Korea, Japan, China, and more.

The Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s mission is to interpret and conserve the Earth’s biological diversity through research, education, and citizen science focused on birds and nature. We are able to offer Merlin for free thanks to the generosity of Cornell Lab members, supporters, and citizen-science contributors.

La migliore

IvanWests on

Veramente un’app fantastica. Grazie alla Cornell University per questo gioiello che mi fa apprezzare ogni giorno le bellezze che abbiamo intorno

Lo shazam degli uccelli

Mks985 on

Bella, semplice, intuitiva e per quanto possibile molto precisa! Consigliatissima!

I love Merlin!

Memeechela on

I love it! It’s like Shazam, but for birds. It’s not always accurate, but it helped me identify a lot of birds by the sound.

Eccellente

GilFri22 on

Sono bloccato in casa per un incidente e posso solo valutare il sound id degli uccelli del mio giardino o quelli che passano in volo (in questo momento dei gruccioni). Mi sembra che funzioni veramente bene!

Eccezionale, da avere per chi ama la natura

Natalia Clartz on

Finalmente quando sono in campagna posso riconoscere i suoni dei tanti uccelli che mi circondano. L’app registra, mostra un grafico delle onde sonore, sotto appare immagine e nome del volatile riconosciuto e ogni volta che canta di nuovo la sua riga si “illumina”. Si può poi riascoltare per accertarsi. Cliccando sull’immagine si ottiene una lista di canti, suoni di allarme ecc. catalogati. Eccellente.

Sound ID no longer works

LorSor57 on

Since I installed this update SoundID does not work on my iPhone. It was a great app before that

Sound ID is super!

Bedaseniore on

What you can’t see, you can hear! The sound ID is wonderful to discover birds you didn’t know about and look after them!

Perfetta

Silviagrillino on

Applicazione bella e molto accurata, riconosce i canti anche con rumori di fondo e se sovrapposti, raramente rimane in dubbio, fornisce tutte le indicazioni necessarie al riconoscimento degli uccelli; non ha una base dati specifica per l'Italia, ma funziona molto bene “western palearctic”. Ottima.

La consiglio caldamente

Silvio C. on

Un’applicazione di qualità veramente eccezionale. Molto e precisa. Anche l’interfaccia è molto curata. Nulla a che fare con altre applicazioni a pagamento. Veramente un grande regalo per tutti gli appassionati agli uccelli. La consiglio caldamente.

Wonderful

Wilsong74 on

Very complete, easy to use and well done. Congratulation to the team
