Current Momentum

v1.1

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. The taxonomy has been updated to reflect 2016 Clements/eBird: - We added detailed species accounts for the new Peruvian splits, so we now cover all of Peru's 1843 bird species - We added audio recordings for some splits (where available) now covering 1515 species - We added notes to make cross-referencing the taxonomy to the paper version of the guide easier We have also fixed some issues reported by users (thank you!): - typo fixes - misc content corrections - Better audio descriptions were added - Illustrations now include descriptions (i.e. subspecies, morphs, etc)
