Hey Wildlabs folk!

I'm currently in the process of putting together a UK Bird based mobile app, and was wondering if anyone knew of any resources online where I could find bird data such as conservation status etc. preferably with some sort of API so that I can pull down the data into the app, rather than write it in manually.  If anyone knows of anything please let me know, I'd be super grateful!

Also, if anyone knows of any grants/funding on the go for nature/conservation/education apps please let me know about that too :)

Thanks in advance.

Tom
