Our Video of the Week introduces you to the Cornell Lab's Merlin Bird ID app's new, groundbreaking tool: sound ID. Merlin can recognize the sounds of more than 400 species from the U.S. and Canada, with that number set to expand rapidly in future updates. What's that bird singing? Let the app listen to the song and it will tell you. Check it out and watch the video to find out how we made it happen: https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/ | Cornell Lab of Ornithology

New AI tools can identify bird sounds! An online tool called BirdNET uses artificial intelligence to identify bird songs and calls. And Cornell’s well-known Merlin Bird ID app now has sound ID, too. It’s as simple as opening the app, choosing “Sound ID,” and hitting record. It can pick out multiple species in the same recording. https://www.birdnote.org/listen/shows/identify-bird-sounds-your-phone | BirdNote
