This project leverages a BirdNET-Pi station I set up late last year. This digital counter pulls the latest daily count and species heard by the microphone in my backyard.

The most common species to visit and chirp is the House Finch. This bird blows any other species out of the water noise-wise.

I made a write-up on the project and how I programmed everything (and if you want to see a video of it).

      Yep! It’s great! It is a super fun project for the tech-savvy tinkerer. If you are a more casual bird lover, I would recommend something like a Haikubox. It uses the same BirdNET neural network but is plug-and-play. I did a writeup about it on my blog.
