Currently working on a take on Pokémon GO + Pokémon Snap but for birding. The goal is to explore your neighborhood, find birds, take good photos of them all. Next month, I'll be doing an event to find a rare bird, excited to see how it goes!

It's still a small closed alpha, if anyone is interested: https://testers.birdlego.com

Here is a rough trailer of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVpR8aafFjI

I got super excited thinking this was for real birds. I would love someone to gamify birding.

I guess it's not intensely gamified, but I have a couple friends at like 80-90% on Merlin. It's their excuse to travel and live abroad

What’s missing from eBird?

  Certainly gamified a bit as I learned from:

  I want something more gamified. I want to go on missions or complete challenges or something. Not just identity and log stuff.

  I'll think of ways to bridge the virtual world with the real world birding one. Let me know if you have any ideas for that :)

Oh I was hoping for this but with real birds in my neighborhood. Still neat!
