Stewart Australian Bird Calls

This app is simply excellent. Its just Australian bird calls, so you need a field guide to supplement it. But the calls are extensive and of great quality. Many sub-species are included. Plus David Stewart is an expert, so the standard is high quality information through the audio. A great resource and archive of Australian bird calls.

Beats others, hands/beaks down

David’s app is far and away the best source of both common and unusual bird calls. It’s the first resource we turn to when we’re out in the field, wondering what bird is calling. It’s easy to navigate and clear. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

This is definitely the best Australian Bird call app. It is unsurpassed in quantity and quality. It also contains vagrant bird calls.

A must have for any aspiring birder!

This is one of the most underrated resources in the world of birding. So may species so wonderfully presented. We love playing “name this bird” on long drives with the family. Full 10/10 for quality and dedication to his craft!

This app has a wonderful expanded range of calls. Unfortunately continual verification requirements block and prevent opening the app when offline

Great recordings. From what I've listened to so far, the majority of the recordings are the same as what's present on Morcombe's Birds of Australia app. If you've already got Morcombe you might not need this one. Some recordings have other species in them (which is totally fine), to the untrained ear this is confusing though. Example 1st Magpie Goose call has White-browed Crake calling constantly. It would be nice if there was a notes section to let the listener know what else is calling.
