The App is designed for young people but adults, parents and teachers find it a good starting tool for watching shorebirds along the Australian Coastline.

The App is designed to enable the user to undertake three tasks

  • Undertake a habitat scan of the place visited to assess if it’s in good condition for shorebirds, waterbirds and seabirds.
  • Identify and list birds
  • Record bird behaviour by observing what birds are doing
