    I had to flick the switch on the mic to a different mode it was on some live instrument -10db mode…

    Anywho, we have lift off. Uh. Bird off?

    Dangit looks like my mic is busted. Plenty of birds out there but no detections. Spectrograph is just showing faint low noise. Off to Ebay I go..

    Due to my places exposure to weather I can't leave the pi or psu outside today. Or permanently really.
    I found a massively long USB extension cable in a pile of old cables and just need to find a sneaky way out a window to get the mic outside.
    Don't really care if I kill a few $6 mics while I sort this out .

    Velcro? Or the 3M picture hanging strips that click together?

    I moved mine down to my chicken coop (has power and is outside/undercover) but had to move it back into the house as it kept detecting Gallus Gallus domesticus :mad:

    Couldn't you just set that as an excluded species in the web options?
    I imagine people would do the same for caged birds.

    Oh yeah good point

    I’m waiting on my new mic anyway. The blue snowball is a bit too bulky and annoying for this.

    I meant an actual case for the RPi but maybe a long USB cable through the same hole that StarLink comes in through would be the go..

    I'm picturing a fully weatherproof enclosure (solar and battery for the giggles) for a pi zero W runnings as a RTSP feed for the pi in the house ...

    When I say picturing, I mean someone else doing it and then I just copy/paste the build/code etc :lol:

    Eufy and Wyze wifi cameras support RTSP I think. Also have solar products.

    The top six results don't surprise me, but the others one are a nice discovery.

    That owl (boobook) must've had a small party.

    Swapped out my microphone for the one sent to me, it is a normal mic into a USB adaptor

    that’s cool so I rigged up an old car microphone used for phone calls and all that

    I’m getting a low level… shhhhhhhhh noise though seems to be on the recordings… I assume it’s the adaptor

    woot going well

    Well, except all of the screeching owl detections

    There doesn’t seem to be a model for “d’Uccle who is unimpressed”

    I wish there was a way to label them correctly, now I have Eurasian coots who are actually just the damn d’uccles again

    I just noticed something on the spectrogram, it actually notes the birds as it has detected them.
    lol, I also see noise on my spectrogram. I'm trying the Pi PSU now. I really prefer the pi POE hat, much less electrical noise.

    you can add birds to a blocked list + you can remove them from the database file (birds.db as a txt file on the pi), or if you know sql, you can use the database maintenance to remove the line items.
