A word of caution on this app (and apps in general. Just check the terms and 
conditions you are signing up for. If all you use Facebook for is bird-related 
things it's probably fine, but people have recently been caught out with apps 
getting access to private photos and information on their Facebook and even on 
their phone. Make sure you are checking what you are giving the app access to 
on your profile and your phone.

That said, it sounds like a pretty neat app.

Cheers,
Chris
