Belkins / belkins-birdnet
A live, hand-illustrated collage of the birds outside your window — named by ear. A standalone Belkins build of BirdNET-Pi (CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0).
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does
What it does
A single $17 USB microphone in your window turns the birds outside into a living collage. Belkins BirdNET listens through the mic, lets Cornell's BirdNET name every passing call, and blooms each species onto the screen as a hand-painted *kachō-e* illustration — sized by how often it's been heard and repainted within seconds of each new detection.
