To see where the birds are with nearby birding hotspots and real-time sightings from eBird use the "Explore" tab in the bottom navigation menu.

The "Explore" tab contains sightings submitted by users to eBird in a shared effort to map bird ranges. It is a constantly updated feed you can access by tapping "Explore > Hotspots" to view the bird sightings in a map format, or "Explore > Sightings" to view the bird sightings in a list format.

Audubon user sightings that have photos attached to them are found under "Explore > Photo Feed" You can view photos Audubon users have added to their sightings and like your favorites!

Sometimes people enter the wrong bird in Explore, which may cause the accuracy to be off from time to time!
