Yep, brown is a challenging colour, but this guy makes it work!

Traditionally, I haven't been that type of birder...

But I've been tagging and organising all of my photos, and I'm tagging them by their genus and species, so I've become that type of birder :)

[-] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 days ago

Yep, I'm officially a lost cause... I recognised the bird by its genus and species before I saw the picture...

Xenophobia.

I run a raspberry pi that identifies birds by their song, and records time, date, and species etc in an SQLite3 database.

The rpi app comes with some basic reports, but I'm wanting to expand on them, so that I can show monthly/yearly trends etc.

On windows at work, I'd use something like Power BI, but a) it's windows and b) it's overkill for my current needs.

I've only recently moved entirely to linux, so I'm not really sure of what the linux alternatives are, and I'm looking for suggestions :)

I'll generally remove posts without questions if someone reports them, but if they aren't bothering anyone enough to report it and I don't notice that they're in this community, then IMO, they're not doing much harm.

But if and when the community gets bigger, signal to noise ratio becomes a lot more important when it's harder to keep up with everything. But we can cross that bridge if and when we get to it IMO

That's how you can tell it's a juvenile! The adults have a full black face mask

Government drones aren't real!

The expression on that second birds face is meme worthy!

New Birdnet-Pi (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
submitted 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) by ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone to c/birding@lemmy.world

Today, I set up my new Birdnet-Pi,a raspberry Pi, running an app that detects and identifies birds by their calls. This is my first half day of recording birds.

Image description: A screenshot of the Birdnet Pi web interface. At the top, it shows a breakdown of birds from that day, sorted by species and time. In order of total number of occurrences, the birds listed are Torresian Crow, Australasian Figbird, Noisy Miner, Barn Owl, Rainbow Lorikeet and Blue-faced Honeyeater. Beneath the list of birds, it shows a waveform graphic for the audio of the latest bird call identitied by the system. In this instance, a Torresian Crow.

I'm not from Sydney, but I took this photo when I was there this weekend gone, and thought that I'd share it

I don't know about beautiful data. That's scary data :/

Unless they start brigading heavily or cross a line in terms of the communities they house, we won't be defederating them.

Their own communities are, quite something, but their admins have told them to be on their best behaviour when engaging in communities outside of their instance, and so far, they seem to be doing that
