I have had an interest in birds since I was a child, and today I like to get out birding with my wife Dianne most weekends.  Our world lifelist is about 1,600 species, so there are still plenty of birds left for us to see!

My Android Birding Checklist Android Smartphone applications (there were versions for NZ, Australia, UK/Europe, America, etc) have recently been upgraded into a new single WorldBirds application covering all birds of the world – see WorldBirds Android Smartphone app – NZ Birding.
