The home page consists of a list of “postcards” taken by the camera. Each postcard allows you to scroll through multiple high-quality photos and a video with sound, which ranges in length from a few seconds to up to two minutes depending on what a bird might be doing. Sometimes the algorithm might also decide to send a video in slow-motion, but that only happened once, when a Steller's jay spent an inordinate amount of time rummaging for a sunflower seed. The AI identification runs along the to

This story originally appeared on Grist and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Jon Dale’s love affair with birds began when he was about 10 and traded his BB gun for a pair of binoculars. Within a year, he’d counted 150 species flitting through the trees that circled his family’s home in Harlingen, Texas. The town sits in the Rio Grande Valley, at the convergence of the Central and Mississippi flyways, and also hosts many native fliers, making it a birder’s paradise. Dale delighted in s

I admire birds as much as the next person, but taking up birdwatching isn’t something I’ve considered. I don’t have the patience, nor do I own a good pair of binoculars — which is necessary for seeing the majestic, winged creatures up close. What I might sooner settle on, however, is the Bird Buddy Pro, a smart bird feeder with an integrated camera that can give you a much, much closer look at birds as they munch (and identify them using AI). Normally $299.99, the video-equipped feeder is matchi

Sources of ancient myth From Topographia Hibernica British Library MS 13 B VIII ( c. 1188 CE ) The barnacle goose myth is a widely-reported historical misconception about the breeding habits of the barnacle goose (Branta leucopsis) and brant goose (Branta bernicla).[1] One version of the myth is that these geese emerge fully formed from goose barnacles (Cirripedia).[2] Other myths exist about how the barnacle goose supposedly emerges and grows from matter other than bird eggs. The etymology o

An oil tanker carrying jet fuel was recently hit by a cargo ship while at anchor 13 miles off the east coast of England. This set off a series of large explosions and a huge plume of black smoke, while a still unknown quantity of jet fuel has spilled into the sea. We’re marine ecologists at the University of Hull, the city nearest the incident. We know this coast and these seas very well. While it’s too early t

Humans have made the world less hospitable for birds in many ways. One obvious and intentional example of this can be found in towns and cities worldwide: anti-bird spikes. The pointy wires you might see attached to roofs, ledges, and light poles are meant to deter urban species like pigeons from landing, pooping, and even nesting where people don’t want them to. But in an avian act of poetic justice, a handful of European birds have struck back. Apparently Carrion Crows and Eurasian Magpies ar

That summer, Schiffman, who had recently made a documentary for National Geographic about relocating giraffes, read a story in the Times about Fritz, the Waldrapp project (Waldrapp is the German term for the species), and the first migration to Spain. Schiffman’s father was an I.T./A.V. technician who’d done some work for Matt Damon. Damon and Ben Affleck have a production company called Artists Equity, which agreed to fund a trip to Spain. Schiffman caught up with the migration outside Roquetes

The Barn Swallow’s Flight Whenever you feel that there is no joy in the world, you must go to a place with swallows. Few things are more euphoric than a swallow in flight. The sun flashes on their iridescent backs. They swoop and dive and wheel around in reckless arcs. Up close they fly nearly too fast for your eyes to track. In a group their motion overwhelms your vision like a Fourth of July finale. Swallows catch insects from mid air with the acrobatics of a bat, but with much greater grace

Found in the forests of Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, and Eastern Australia, birds of paradise are famous for flashy feathers and unusually shaped ornaments, which set the standard for haute couture among birds. Many use these feathers for flamboyant mating displays in which they shape-shift into otherworldly forms. As if this didn’t attract enough attention, we’ve now learned that they also glow in the dark. Biofluorescent organisms are everywhere, from mushrooms to fish to reptiles and amphib
