The audio was recorded from 6 sites along the east coast of Australia. Peaceful doveMagpie-larkGolden whistlerRufous whistler 02Whistling kite 8 people are talking about BirdSong right now.

By classifying audio recordings, you will become acquainted with an array of bird calls and help us develop automated methods to monitor bird populations." ABOUT BIRDSONG Help researchers from James Cook University develop call recognisers to monitor bird populations around Australia, including endangered and rare species such as the southern subspecies of the Black-throated Finch Poephila cincta cincta! Passive acoustic monitoring is an excellent tool that can be used to monitor species using their vocalisations. However, with so much audio data being collected researchers need an effective way to detect individual species within the recordings. Call recognisers aid in species detection by automatically identifying vocalisations in the audio but require lots of example vocalisations to train. With your help we will develop call recognisers that can be used at over 90 locations around Australia.
