It won't take long before you figure out that most of our neighbors around here have feathers and, boy, do they each have their own personalities!
Even if you don't know a robin from a goldfinch, Merlin is a snap to use. Developed by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, you'll be able to easily identify birds visually or by song.
GIVE IT A TRY BY CLICKING ON THE FEATHER BELOW, wait for the All About Birds page to load, and then select "Get Instant ID Help "or "Try Merlin" .
We think you'll discover that birds are just about the best neighbors ever!
