Mobile phones and data applications have transformed every aspect of our daily lives, and this is increasingly extending to migratory bird conservation. Dr. Orin Robinson of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology joins the podcast to discuss eBird – the birdwatching app that has become a worldwide phenomenon – and how it is being used to understand bird migration and improve waterfowl conservation planning. Also discussed are Merlin and BirdCast, two other super cool bird applications. www.ducks.org/DUPodcast
