What's New

Greetings, nature lovers! We're excited about this update and improvements coming soon to the Fieldstone Guide apps.

In this release we've added capabilities that allow for real-time taxonomic and data updates from our central CMS, which means more frequent content updates from us and fewer update downloads for you. This feature makes it much easier for us to continue to improve and update our content as we continue to expand our understanding of the wondrous natural world that we share.

We have more news about new content and improvements to our Fieldstone Guide apps coming soon, so stay tuned!
—Team Fieldstone

App Description

From the creators of the National Audubon Society Field Guides and the National Wildlife Federation Guides comes an all-new, beautiful and intuitive guide to 627 North American butterflies, with more than 1,850 photographs, dynamic search functions, and more. Includes the entire updated butterflies text from the National Audubon Society series of field guides (22 million copies in print).

Utilizing the latest iOS technologies, you can:

• Search by name (common and scientific) using either keyboard or verbal search systems; type or speak all or part of a butterfly’s name to search for its detailed account.
• Organize butterflies species alphabetically or taxonomically.
• Search by family, shape, habitat, region, color, size—or any combination.

Every species account contains the entire text content of the Audubon Guides to aerial and terrestrial wildlife in North America—all recently updated—and features high-quality color photography. Touch to open any or all of the text sections, and to enlarge photos.

Each species account contains:

• description with identification details
• habitat description
• range information
• discussion of the species’ behavior and other notable characteristics
• Family and Order information
• photos of similar species with links to those species’ accounts
• links to the Wikipedia entry for every species

The apps also contain note-taking and photo uploading functions. Keep a digital journal of your findings and share them with family, friends, and our growing online community.
