Count Circle for Android

11 things about Count Circle

1. Count Circle includes the complete National Audubon database of CBCs, with a total of 2883 different count circles in 93 different states and territories including Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, South America, and Antarctica (updated as of December 2018).

2. If you have reason to believe the database is in error, Count Circle lets you set the center of the circle, then update the database, and even, if you choose to do so, report the revision directly to National Audubon, who then review the update.

3. Note: Notwithstanding the information in the previous paragraph, Count Circle is not affiliated with nor endorsed by the National Audubon Society.

4. You can also use Count Circle just to view the different circles, to help you decide which ones you might like to participate in.

5. If you're involved with Christmas or Breeding Bird Counts, the boundaries of your count circle are always of interest, and sometimes unclear.

6. You can also create and save your own circles, and, combined with the ability to display multiple existing circles, this provides the perfect way to position a potential new circle so that it doesn't overlap existing circles.

7. Lookup and display any count circle on an interactive map, and find out exactly what is (and is not) included in the circle.

8. Note: some reviewers have noted errors in the count circle locations.

9. Christmas Bird Count is a trademark of the National Audubon Society.

10. The software also displays your current location, so you can determine precisely if you are inside or outside the count circle as you are doing your count.

11. Any errors in location stem from that database, NOT from the app! This is precisely why the app includes a feature that lets you report such errors directly to Audubon, so that Audubon can correct such errors in future updates of their database.
