A sister team from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology also has a app called "Merlin," which can automatically identify birds by picture or sound. BirdNET feels targeted towards folks doing bioacoustics research while Merlin is focused around education and outreach. Merlin's Sound ID is fairly accurate and it can identify (recorded or live) bird calls from your phone's microphone! https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/sound-id/ https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/sound-id/ Lately I've been teaching myself bird calls from custom-built Anki flashcards (I can't see well, so learning to bird by sight is less interesting to me than birding by ear). Having an easy way of "checking my work" in the wild really helps me feel confident about learning the birds in my neighborhood.
