I second hhandoko's question: is it open source? Or better yet, is it FLOSS? Also, is an Android version coming anytime soon?

It isn't open source but it will remain free. There is a similar Android app called Birds Around Me [1] that is very similar. I have no plans to implement on other devices. This is just a hobby. Ironically found after I built most of this app.

Yeah, I saw that on your support site after I asked. Sorry for not checking before, but thanks for answering!

One of my favourite projects to work on was with inaturalist.org . It's open sourced on github (https://github.com/inaturalist) .. we were making the New Zealand port : http://naturewatch.org.nz/

Has Android & iOS ports..
