Want to log multiple bird sightings when you’re out birding? If you’re out on a walk, sitting in a bird hide or even just watching your bird feeder at home, follow these steps to quickly and easily log all the birds you see. Take a look at the article 'What is a session' for more information on sessions. Or visit 'Log a sighting' to read more about adding individual sightings.
To log a birding session:
Open the Birda app and press the large + icon
Tap the 'Begin Birding' button to begin a birding session
Then tap 'Begin Birding Session' when you are ready to start your session
Log each bird sighting as you go.
Don't forget that you can use your voice to add the species' name to the search field if you like.
Review the session when you have finished your birding session:
Give your session a name
Add photos to your sightings as well as pics of yourself and others out birding
Write notes about the session
Edit any of the individual sightings if needed
Next you can either tap on 'Post Session' to post the session or 'Save as draft' if you want to make a few edits and add photos at a later stage before you post the session.
