Note: Cell phone version is at Birder's Dashboard for mobile devices. Washington State version (allows searches by county) for desktop/laptop is at Birder's Dashboard (Washington State). Cell phone version for Washington State: Birder's Dashboard (Washington Sate - mobile). This is Randy Robinson's creation -- really helpful for birders.
I've created an app that will give you a bird species checklist for any county in the United States. The checklist is of all species ever recorded in the county that have been reported to Cornell University Lab of Ornithology's wonderful eBird site, to which millions of sightings are reported every year. The checklist is alphabetized and paginated for printing out. You can find it at: Bird checklist for any U.S. county
We've put A Birder's Guide to Washington 2nd Ed. online! Birders can now get and give current information online about birding spots all over the state! Please share your observations and experiences of birding spots mentioned in the book with other birders. And find out what's going on at a site you might want to bird!

(Note: This is an old app I wrote for Windows 7. Chances are it's not compatible with Windows 10 or 11. Download each of the three files from the download site below to your Windows PC. To download them, go to the download site, click on a file (either right click or left click depending on your browser) and select "Save to disk" or "Copy to folder" or similar command. Once the three files are downloaded to your PC, double-click on "setup.exe" and follow the prompts.

- Google Chrome browser
I switched from the Firefox browser to the Google Chrome browser several years ago when Firefox got really slow. Chrome integrates well with other Google services such as Gmail, Keep, Photos, Docs, gDrive, etc. But Firefox has recently become a great browser again, providing speed and privacy, so it's a good choice too.

Here's an article discussing the differences between Open Office and Libre Office
