Birdnet-go is a real-time sound analyzer that detects bird species. It can take in audio from microphones. I set mine up to stream audio from my security cameras that I already had installed. There’s even a Home Assistant App, if you’re using it.
I live in a more suburban/semi-urban environment, but was really surprised to so many different bird species.
Ditch the AI slop logo, please.
Totally agree, I threw a quick filter on some public domain, actual human artwork, and cropped it square. Took me as long as it would have taken to generate that slop logo.

For the love of anything even mildly good or wholesome…enough of the fucking AI slop images!
It’s an AI program specifically to use AI models to recognise birds. If you’re against AI you should probably learn to recognise them manually.
“AI” is a pretty bad blanket term. BirdNet / Merlin is a model trained specifically on bird calls (and some noises) built to recognize bird calls. App and logo use huge general-purpose models to create content of questionable quality.
And yes, a decent birder should never trust just Merlin ID.
Oh you’ll smoke a turd in hell for your insolence. That would make sense. It’s much easier to complain.
