Avian Visitors

I wanted to do something similar to this, then I started doing some research on birds in general, and those in my locality, then I started learning about Audio and spectograms and Nyquist Theorem and many other interesting audio stuff.

Then I started going through the Intro to Conservation Bioacoustics by Cornell course, and started watching Bioacoustic Talks by the K. Lisa Yang Center cornell center.

And now I am almost at the point where I cant start manually tagging audio sets, for target species so that I can train custom classifiers to identify birds in Rwanda which are poorly detected by birdnet.

TLDR: Being jobless can lead you into interesting ventures.

I'm enjoying tracking the local wildlife with my bird listening station.

There's also an excellent alternative to BirdNet-Pi that runs well on non-Raspberry-Pi machines: https://github.com/tphakala/birdnet-go
