Birding data management that is meaningful to you
Feathers helps you organize birding data around individual sightings and sessions, so your notes, coordinates, tags, media, and timelines stay connected over time.

A birding session, from first sighting to lasting record.
More than a species list
Feathers is designed for birders who want a system, not just a running total. Each sighting can carry the data that makes it useful later: exact place, time, notes, media, weather, tags, and session context.
That structure makes it easier to revisit a trip, understand a species over time, or answer your own questions about where and how you have encountered birds.
If you want the product philosophy behind that data model, start with the sighting-first origin story.
It's all in the details.
Log precise locations and timestamps for each sighting, so you never forget exactly when and in what tree you saw your first Cerulean Warbler.

Mark your territory.
Draw geofences to create automatic yard, neighborhood, and custom area lists.

Get to know each species.
Build up species profiles that provide snapshots of your relationship with each species throughout your birding journey.

Track what matters.
Create custom tags for sightings and sessions to document what's meaningful to you.

Watch patterns unfold.
Learn more from your own sightings through shareable graphics and charts.

Stay connected.
Contribute to citizen science by seamlessly syncing sessions and sightings to eBird — Feathers complements eBird, it doesn’t replace it.
