Birds of a feather

And I was there in 2011 in early January. A wonderful place. Just yesterday I convinced one of the young docs here to accept the offer of a job there.

I would love to work there for a stint, but I was only passing through. Sadly there's not much need for primary school teachers in the sub-Antarctic or Antarctic.

I've been looking for an app that will identify birds by using the mic on a phone. I've tried a few, none 'til now worked well, and a paid version was the worst (euro centric).

This one from Cornel university was recommended to me by a very knowledgeable amateur (and it's free). Note that it uses your location to aid/restrict results, if you have an issue with that. It's worthwhile reading the instructions... you select a sample of the recording to send for (instant) analysis.

I find that you do need a clear sample for it to work, no background birdsongs.

Beware of a dodgy result if using it near @drron when he’s communing with his maggies. 😃😜

If he's at the bne dinner tomorrow, I'll add his callsong to the database :) . Never met him, so he's an unidentified species to me.

It will be the biggest and often most colourful magpie you will ever see. But he is flying south tomorrow.
