Fast trip recording

Record a trip in seconds

Birds don’t wait. Trip Tick is the birdwatching trip logger built for fast, in-the-moment logging — so you can note a sighting, set a count and move on without missing the next bird.

Tap-friendly entry

Big, simple controls designed for cold fingers, gloves and quick birds. Start typing a species and pick it in a tap.

Counts, notes & “heard only”

Add a count, flag a bird as heard-only, and jot a quick note — all without leaving the entry screen.

Search any region

Looking somewhere new? Search another region’s species list on the fly and keep logging.

Pick up where you left off

Trips save as you go, so you can pause, walk on, and add to the same trip later in the day.

Designed around real birding

The fastest way to lose a record is friction. Trip Tick strips entry back to the essentials so logging a bird takes seconds, not minutes — whether you’re scanning a busy estuary or ticking a garden visitor. A trip is simply one visit to one place on one day, so an hour on your local patch counts just as much as a day at a reserve. Recording is completely free, forever.
