Wild Essex Hack 2.3

Screenshots

Description

An app for anyone who wants to learn more about British wildlife, particularly but not only in Essex. Contains descriptions and photos of 670 of the birds, animals and plants you are most likely to notice in the countryside, helping you to identify them and discover more about their lifestyle and behaviour.
The content relates specifically to Essex, but most of the species included are much more widespread than that.
It also has 'Test your knowledge' games, so you can have a bit of fun while you learn.
For recording, it provides a good base of species and sites, and you can add your own species and sites. Once added, they never need to be entered again.
Records can be kept as long as you wish, and can be exported via email to store or send elsewhere.
