I wish when I uploaded a photo for analysis, and the app identifies my bird, that I could keep MY photo and not the generic one in their database. It's great at building a checklist, but not so much for making it feel like my own.

If you use the companion app called ebird, you can save your checklists. Later you can upload your photos and any audio you have recorded. Those get vetted by regional bird experts and get added to the scientific data. It's fun to go back and relive past hikes and trips viewing your pictures on the ebird.org website!
