I am often asked how I locate and identify birds. One of my favorite iOS apps is Merlin Bird ID by Cornell Lab. It has a feature to help identify birds by their song. It will even show you all the birds nearby your location. It looks like this:
I like to use this when I hear a bird that I just cannot identify. Once I know what I am looking for it seems to make locating the bird easier. Once I have the photo, I can use this or other tools to confirm my find.
