    My favourite bird song fact is that parrots (even small ones like budgies) can associate particular sound sequences with specific members of their flocks, including themselves. They can also introduce themselves to each other with those sequences.

    If you happen to own a parrot, it most likely has a name in its own language and has told it to you. And it also gave you a name.

        There’s a fun open source app called WhoBIRD that identifies birds by their calls in real time!

        It’s actually really impressive and a lot of fun identifying the local birds. This is a use of learning models I can totally get behind. :D
