    It’s an app for keeping track of and reporting bird sightings.

    Ushuaia is the port city for everyone going to Antarctica for tourism. Every ornithologist I’ve worked with on Antarctica bound tourism vessels has talked about going to the Ushuaia dump. This feelsike such a deep cut 😂

    Same goes for visiting northern communities in the Arctic.

    Want good arctic Fox photos? Go to the town dump.

      Looks like it’s from the Merlin (or similar) bird identification app describing that they were birdwatching at a landfill and located 75 species of bird.
