Working with the Cry Wolf Project, researchers have built a database of over 200,000 hours of wild wolf vocalizations, the largest in the world. better.net/environment/listening-to-the-wild-what-wolf-howls-can-teach-us/

Listening to the Wild: What Wolf Howls Can Teach Us

Researchers are using AI to decode wolf communication in Yellowstone — and what they're finding reveals why these predators matter more than most of us realize.

We're very busy at #ATBC2026! Did you get a chance to attend our workshop? Be sure to stop by our booth and snag some swag. including an EMT2 Pin! #TropicalBiology #Biotropica

I’ve been playing with the BirdNET integration in Kaleidoscope, and it’s pulled out some lovely detections of Tawny Owls. The first is the typical twit-twoo of a duetting couple. The second is a more ghostly courtship call. No wonder it’s alarming the Blackbirds (sound on)! @wildlifeacoustics.com

I completed my annual bioacoustic survey of the forest birds of Kent Island, with a little help from some friends. We collect these long-term data to study changes in breeding bird populations at Bowdoin Scientific Station. @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social @wildlifeacoustics.com @ryannorrissci.bsky.social

This month I'm testing out the newest Wildlife Acoustics recorders: the Song Meter SM5 and the Song Meter Micro 2. I'm going to compare to our trusty Song Meter Minis, recording birds at the Bowdoin Scientific Station in the Bay of Fundy. Stay tuned for comparisons. @wildlifeacoustics.com

Excellent video in connection with the article we shared from The Beacon. We love seeing Song Meters in action. Great work everyone involved!

Beautiful video by #AudubonGreatLakes highlights the partnership I work within to improve wetland bird monitoring using #bioacoustics and manage wetland restoration in the Great lakes region! youtu.be/50t_3nIis9Q?...

In 2024, scientists launched an acoustic monitoring project that will help detect the calls of #wetland birds in the Great Lakes region. #MarshBirds #WinousPoint #Bioacoustics thebeacon.net/acoustic-monitoring-project-will-make-it-easier-to-detect-and-protect-secretive-marsh-birds/

April Virtual Training is Here

After attending a great webinar hosted by @wildlifeacoustics.com last week, we’ve trialled #nocmig using Chirpity. Fascinating results, with plenty of birds passing over, and being identified by their flight calls, including Siskins, Redwings and Hawfinches heading north @chirpity-nocmig.bsky.social

Never realised Crossbills had so many regional accents, nor that Welsh Crossbills visit France. Fascinating facts from @wildlifeacoustics.com #NocmigWebinar

The fact that nocturnal migration acoustic monitoring can be used to judge migration intensity and in turn, people can control light pollution and help birds migrate is very exciting prospect that should be worked upon. @wildlifeacoustics.com #NocmigWebinar

Attending a fascinating webinar on nocturnal migration, hosted by the fantastic @wildlifeacoustics.com team. Lots of interesting facts – including that 80% of birds migrate at night! Thanks for organising such a great event. Excited about nocturnal recordings – and not just for bats! #nocmigwebinar

Just now in #NocmigWebinar from @wildlifeacoustics.com to expanding datascience together with bat surveys and citizen science too. Big migrations closer to us throught NFC’s. You won’t go to sleep without knowing one more thing. Looking forward to the new #SongMeter5 units!
