I just got Avisys 5.0 with BirdBase add-on, a newly upgraded Bird Listing and Database for my spanking new Dell Dimension XPS. It features all Clements world birds and the BirdBase add-on generates tick lists for all countries and areas. I am putting in a few of my birds every evening, not that I have that much to enter LOL only 395 or so. But more than half of my birds are world birds so for me this (somewhat expensive at $159.00) world birding software package makes more sense than a North American-only package.
I am enjoying the features, which will really be useful once I get all my birds in. I am taking my time because of the cool Field Notes section where I can record specifics of each sighting. I have a great big pile of notebooks and field guides by the computer, just a trifle intimidating! Subspecies coverage is thorough and you are provided free updates of taxonomic changes from the software designers. I have entered all 3 subspecies of Yellow Warbler that I have seen, alas, they only count as one bird!(o)<
Has anybody else ever used Avisys 5.0 or earlier versions, and what kind of reports do you like best? I hope to get reports showing just my triple slam species, seen in Belize-Jamaica-US, such as Kentucky Warbler, Northern Parula, Ovenbird, Yellow Warbler, and so on.
