Bird Sounds Global has launched a now web portal in the first day of June. The aim is to construct a database of expert-validated sound features of all the bird species of the world.

Suomalaistutkijoilla on hurja tavoite: kartoittaa maailman elämä. Siksi ötököitä kerätään, saalistajia kuvataan ja ääniä tallennetaan nyt 151 maailmankolkassa. @helsinkiuni Tomas Roslin kertoo @LifeplanProject'ista Hesarin upeassa 💎jutussa:

A new #PhilTransB theme issue showcases cutting-edge advancements in the fields of DNA sequencing, computer vision, acoustic monitoring and radar for use in #insect#biodiversity monitoring. Read more: https://t.co/LUAK4eMwDO
Starting in freezing -13°C - with @LifeplanProject. I hope for the technical issues to be minimal, and potential thieves drowning in the swamps along the way :-).
At @cnr_irsa it's time to switch to our natural Lake Maggiore site for sampling global biodiversity for @LifeplanProject. Ready to discover what's hidden in the @ParcoTicinoPiem woods!
One week of @LifeplanProject#cameratrap sampling in the urban site on campus @Uni_WUE already shows a wide range of #wildlife! Curious what we will sample throughout the year... 🦄
Estamos en la Reserva Natural y Cascada los Tucanes presentando los resultados de los proyectos de investigación en biodiversidad a los actores claves de Gachantivá. @yurany_pantoja@LifeplanProject@inst_humboldt hablando de mamíferos, plantas y grillos 🐆🦗🪻🎶🍄
New milestones has been achieved! Over 22k soundscapes annotated covering 672 species. We still welcome more users e.g. from The Americas @AudubonAmericas

BSG is now available in Spanish 🇪🇸!
El objetivo del portal de anotación de paisajes sonoros es producir material de entrenamiento y prueba para la identificación automática del sonido de las aves.

Tommi Mononen (rt) from @LifeplanProject, led by @helsinkiuni, visited the project's field research site @uofg@uogarboretum. CBG's Mikko Pentinsaari (lt) is monitoring this site looking for wildlife, spores in the air, and flying insects. https://t.co/jBrZ93yof3
