Casual birdwatchers may want to bookmark Merlin Bird Photo ID (http://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/photo-id), a website created by Cornell University and the Visipedia research project. Thanks to powerful artificial intelligence techniques, the website can identify birds in photos you upload, so long as they're species found in the US and Canada.
