This tool generates a photographic life list from your eBird photo records. Simply drag/upload a CSV exported from your eBird profile and your life list will be instantly shown. Everything runs entirely in your browser. The CSV is processed locally and no data is uploaded or stored. You can refresh the list at any time by uploading a new export.
For each species, the tool shows its life-list position, common and scientific names, the date of your first photographed record, the locality, and direct links to the original eBird checklist and your full observation history for that species. If you have photographed a species multiple times, only the earliest photographic record is used.
To export the CSV from eBird and use the tool, follow these steps:
- Go to the eBird gallery tool.
- Click "Contributors" (or "Filter" then "Contributors" on mobile).
- Click on "My Media" (and then "Show results" on mobile).
- Click on "Export".
- Use the CSV file that downloads with this tool.
Limitations:
- Some sensitive species are not shown in eBird galleries - these will not be included in the list.
- If you have uploaded more than 10000 photos then it isn't possible to export them in the way described above - you will need to do multiple exports based on e.g. date ranges and stitch them into a single CSV prior to using this tool.
