Our Birds Texas is a scaled down version of Cornell Lab of Ornithology's Birds of North America 3.5 by Thayer Birding Software. Birds of Texas contains 439 species regularly seen in the state (the entire Texas species list is around 620 species). This Windows CD-ROM includes color photos, songs for all species from the world-famous Cornell Lab of Ornithology, range maps, abundance maps, ID tips and more. It includes an ID Wizard to help you identify the birds, even if you do not know the bird's name. Just enter colors, size, habitat and location. The ID Wizard will show you photos of all the birds that match your description. Petey the Parrot will pronounce each bird's common and scientific name for you. Also included are over 300 quizzes, including Christmas Bird Count and birding hot spots quizzes. The CD-ROM lets you compare two birds side-by-side and shows you the similar species. This CD-ROM can be upgraded to the #1-rated Cornell Lab of Ornithology's Guide to Birds of North America version 3, featuring all 930 species. The Birds of Texas CD-ROM is a ""subset"" of the full Guide to Birds of North America v3, so you do not need both CD-ROMs. Birds of Texas is one of a series of several state guides and 'bird group' guides that are subsets of Birds of America 3.5. If you would like a different state, or a region (Northeast, Midwest, etc.), please see Birds of My Region.
