SIGHTING DETAILS

A flock of 1 bird consumes approx 1lb of fish per day.

Optional: add how many birds were doing each activity. Behaviours can overlap (a bird that fed then flew counts in both).

Reports with photos are significantly more valuable, they enable AI species verification and provide evidence that stands up to regulatory scrutiny.

Where you allow it, photos are checked by Hydro-Vision AI™ for species confirmation and count validation.

Reports save instantly to your device and sync to the cloud in the background.
