Just a thought but can the app distinguish the type of woodpecker by its tapping?

An app that can detect plants from their sound is seriously impressive ;-)

We had one pecking away at the metal bit on the telegraph pole, suspect that might've been hard even for an AI enhanced app to puzzle out.

GSWs have a recognisable drumming pattern, whilst green woodpeckers “yaffle in flight
I don’t know if greens drum, I’ve never herd them and we have them regularly in the garden

LSW much quieter than GSW but then they are wee; the size of a sparrow

I'm in Canada - so far red-winged blackbird and an american robin heard. I saw the red-winged blackbird yesterday...looks like a blackbird with a red and yellow splodge around its shoulder.

Merlin thought it heard a nuthatch this morning. It was actually the mistle thrush it thought was a song thrush sampling a nuthatch

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
I am a bit of a geek and love listening to the bird song

I use the Merlin app all the time and the grandsons now also love it too.

We are lucky that our garden is full of birds, and the wonderful songs (apart from the seagulls)

Would love to see what others hear on their walks
