About this tool
Description

Song Sleuth is an iOS app (coming to Android in Fall 2017) that allows users to become better at identifying birds by their songs. When a bird is recorded singing, the app presents 3 species likely-match options. From there, the user can listen to song examples, compare spectrograms (visualizations of the sound), and David Sibley illustrations to determine which bird they heard or saw.
