Larkwire Birding App

Want to sharpen your birding-by-ear skills? Now there’s a fun new way to learn bird songs. Larkwire is a computer game/app developed by folks from Seattle’s Audubon chapter that can be played on all computers, most tablets and smart phones! With customizable quiz games, a large gallery of sounds, proven techniques to facilitate learning, and tips from top birder-by-ear Michael O’Brien, the game provides a fun and effective way to improve your skills.

The company behind Larkwire is a social venture that not only helps people learn bird songs but also promotes conservation. Use the following link to learn more and try out the game for free: www.larkwire.com/?a=AUDPORT. Buy a copy, and the Audubon Society of Portland will receive up to 20% of the purchase price! If you make the purchase later or don’t use this link, just add the code AUDPORT when you reach the checkout. For iTunes purchases, add the code to the mailing list sign-up form (click "Larkwire News" from the app's home screen and follow the directions). What a great way to improve your birding skills, have fun, and also support Portland Audubon!
