- Excellent backyard birder guide ★★★★★ iBird Backyard is a great reference tool. While it does not include all the features of its bigger brother, iBird Pro, you get a feature rich app that helps you identify the birds that visit your yard. In addition you get tons of info not found in field guides to enhance your birding experience. I highly recommend this app. -SongbirdHaven
