You can also do bird surveys now with call recognition. The Merlin app (which is free for your phone) has a sound recognition capability. It's cool to stand out in an area with low ambient noise and have it recognize bird calls in real time. It usually gets it right.

You can also run BirdNET on a RPi and record all day. It's very cool the patterns you can find. Also birdweather.com as a map of collected data

That's neat, I didn't know about Merlin. Obligatory XKCD: https://xkcd.com/1425/
