How it works

Three steps from a glimpse
to a keeper.

No quizzes, no grinding. Just look up, notice a bird, and let your collection grow with every walk.

01

Spot

Out on a walk or watching the feeder, you see a bird. Hit “Spot a bird” and tell TwitcherDeck what you saw.

02

Identify

We match it against the field guide — plumage, size, song, habitat — and confirm the species in seconds.

03

Collect

Its card flips into your deck. The rarer the bird, the bolder the border and the shinier the foil.

The cards

Not all birds are created equal.

Every species sits on a five-tier rarity scale. The harder it is to spot in the wild, the more spectacular its card.

Every card is earned

No packs to buy. The only way a card joins your deck is to genuinely spot the bird.

Field notes

Questions from the hide.

Completely. Every feature and every species is free for everyone, forever. TwitcherDeck is funded by optional donations — not paywalls or premium tiers.

Donate any amount and you're entered into that month's prize raffle — roughly one entry per pound. We draw winners at random at the end of every month.

Never. Donations are entirely optional and only affect the raffle — they don't unlock anything. The whole of TwitcherDeck is identical for everyone.

Birding kit, rare bird prints and seasonal surprises. The prize pot grows with the community, so the more support comes in, the better the draws get.

Nope. TwitcherDeck runs on the honour system of every good birder's log — you tell us what you spotted and we add the card. Snapping a photo is optional.

Not at all. TwitcherDeck lives on the web — open it in any browser on your phone or laptop and your deck is right there. Nothing to install.
