It looks and works fantastically Neil, well done! Great artwork, great info, and I like the size comparisons. In terms of the calls on the app, I actually really like the fact that you can have more than one call playing at once. This gives you an option of listening to a cacophony of wetland bird calls. For instance I had all the rails going off at once, giving an impression of a complex wetland. I had this very situation at Junee Wetland in NSW just recently – all the crakes noisily calling at once, and all within several feet of where I was sitting. Using your app, I even managed to get many of the birds that you might hear at a Kakadu going together! Like a personalised orchestrated Kakadu dawn chorus. Love it.
