Another service, Birding Pal, lets you find find a place to stay on a birdwatching trip or host an out-of-town birder. It costs $10 a year. Birding can even be good for your love life. "Here, we see birding as this kind of nerdy activity," Strycker says. But in Colombia, "this one guy told me bird clubs are a great way to go pick up chicks." No, he doesn't mean baby birds. Old-school email lists remain important, too. "It's so easy to be connected and know what's going on," says Alli LaChance, from Ypsilanti, Michigan. She and her husband, Steve, are bundled up against the morning chill, starting their day with a look at a sprawling Magee Marsh sign featuring 36 warbler species. She's carrying a Nikon camera, Nikon binoculars and the iSpiny Chirp app that quizzes you on bird calls. He's got the Vortex binoculars and BMW hat to keep the spring sun at bay.

In February, an email brought news of an extremely unusual ivory gull 65 miles away in Flint, Michigan, "I got the alert Sunday night as I was cooking dinner," she tells me while we're at Magee Marsh, It was nighttime in the Michigan winter, but she decided she had to go, It was a good thing she got there in time because the gull died the next day -- survival isn't easy for birds that garden iphone case stray far from their usual range, Bird app pioneer Mitch Waite was in the wrong place at the right time, The birder and former chief executive of Mitch Waite Press, a computer book publisher, had tried to sell a birding app for Microsoft's ill-fated Windows Mobile software more than a decade ago..

"It was a big flop," Waite says. "We sold 70 copies in the first three months." He was bummed out and burned out -- until customers of Apple's then brand-new iPhone got in touch. "When your customers are telling you you have a good idea but you're on the wrong platform, you should listen to them," he says. iBird arrived in Apple's App Store in 2008. A quartet of Ohio warblers, clockwise from top left: black-throated green warbler, black and white warbler, palm warbler, and black-throated blue warbler.

But the real change came after Apple CEO Steve Jobs' daughter discovered iBird, which then featured in Apple's famous "there's an app for that" campaign, The $15 Pro version describes 944 North American species and includes 3,300 song recordings and 4,500 photos, "Suddenly all the birders realized, 'I can use my iPhone instead of my book? garden iphone case It has a search engine? And it plays its song?'" Waite says, "That started a stampede."Millions bought the app in its first year as birders switched from paper to digital, It's since dropped to a steady but lower rate of sales, "The engine that keeps us going is the new birders," Waite says..

His target market is jammed elbow-to-elbow on Ohio's Magee Marsh boardwalk, a half-mile of elevated pathway that caters to warbler-obsessed birders. The traffic jams tell you when they've found an interesting specimen, and binoculars and telephoto lenses show you where to look. Abundant experts will tell you whether to keep your eyes peeled for a sky-blue cerulean warbler or a beautiful gold-and-orange Blackburnian. A chestnut-sided warbler looks upward at Magee Marsh in northern Ohio. Strycker is happy to share his knowledge: yellow warblers sing "sweet sweet sweet I'm so sweet," while warbling vireos warn "if I see you I will seize you, I will squeeze you 'til you squirt." Blue-gray gnatcatchers build their nests from spiderweb and lichen. Even with so much help on hand, though, I see plenty of bird books and apps. Birders pull out phones to read up on what they're seeing, check alerts for unusual nearby sightings and dictate voice memos to record what they see.
