Inspired by Jessamyn's post at the beginning of the year, i have acquired adequate volumes of Raspberry Pi, and set up a listening post for birds too.

BirdNet seems neat and i dig the fact that it records stats and gives you some visualizations. Here's a spectrogram of one of the Scrub Jay that lives near by.

I've only had it plugged in a few hours across the past two days, but i'm learning things about birds that live near by. I don't know what some of these are yet. So that's cool!

Having little recordings of each of the recognized bird songs is neat!

by the way for anyone who wants to set up BirdNet-Pi, the main repository is defunct, and development has been taken over in a fork you can find here:

https://github.com/Nachtzuster/BirdNET-Pi/

I found a place in San Jose that is selling 4gb Raspberry Pi 4b boards + power supplies for $30. So now i have a bunch of raspberry pis, and a reason to fiddle around with 3d printing pi cases.

@ian ooooo, i'm going to have to try this out. I kind of want to build devices to put all in a bunch of places. My dad lives down next to a big regional park.

lol maybe i should order more pis. I got a stereo usb webcam from OfferUp for 5$ for my current set up.

@ian oh shit! This has ADSB integration! We can see OAK from my deck, so ADSB tagging has been on my list of things that'd be cool to get as ambient info. Watch the planes take off and land and get a sense of where they're going, you know?
