Ich hatte eine etwas anstrengende Woche und beschloss, heute früh aufzustehen, um mir ein bisschen Wohlbefinden zu verschaffen, dem Morgengesang zu lauschen – ich bin froh, dass ich es getan habe, denn es ist mir gelungen, einen Brachvogel zu fangen. Ich habe ihn oder sie nicht gesehen, aber ich habe sie gehört. Und zwar einfach dadurch, dass man am offenen Fenster sitzt!

    Ich würde auf jeden Fall eine Art Dawn-Refrain empfehlen "Klangbad" für eine Seelenreinigung. Ich bin seit 5 Uhr morgens wach, aber es hat sich gelohnt 💛

    1. Amazing that you heard the Curlew! I love this app! I managed to record a cuckoo last year, was very happy with myself. I’m up the crack of dawn most mornings and there’s something magical about the dawn course.

      As a biologist working in North America this app is a daily user and so intuitive!!

    3. It has been great hearing it recently and the good weather too. I remember using Merlin on a work trip in Mexico and when my colleagues asked what I was at I said, „It is like Shazam for birds“. I got the piss taken out of me for a bit for that lol

      Oh.. I’ve been calling all the coal tit’s in my garden Bilbo Waggins lol

      I wake up at 5am everyday. Hearing the „dawn chorus“ is an important part of my day. I feel grateful to be alive

    6. Just went to show my dawn chorus hits here, but turns out I didn’t save it, sleepy head on me. 😢 But I remember that there was a common wood pigeon, Sardinian warbler, Eurasian blackcap, blackbird, robin and a couple of others. I’m in Sicily!

      Absolutely adore the Merlin app and how widely used it is. Birds of a feather and all that. Here’s a screenshot from April, got some amazing hits that day.

    7. Interesting, I’ve been wanting to identify the birdsong I hear near my house. It starts for me about an hour or two before sunrise and it’s quite varied throughout the day.

      Aw man, all we get is starlings, robins, jackdaws, magpies and seagulls! And the odd londubh.

    9. I didn’t think we got carrion crows in Ireland, but apparently we do get an occasional visitor on the eastern coast, and there’s a small breeding population in County Down. The dominant crow species in Ireland is the hooded crow, and usually you don’t get carrion crows where you have hooded crows, and vice versa.

    10. I was recording the other day and my cat showed up so I made some calling noise to her and it registered as a cuckoo.

    11. I get up at 5.15am daily and the dawn chorus these mornings is amazing. From the moment I wake I can hear them outside giving it socks.

      Always take a few seconds on my way to the car to listen as the sun rises. Been fabulous the past week with the good weather too.

    12. There’s one type of bird that is always around my bedroom and I haaate the sound of it.

    13. Recent convert to Merlin. It’s great to walk around gathering birds. Sometimes I’ll walk until the app has picked up ten species, just to see how long it takes.

      The merlin app is awesome. I sit outside with my morning tea, listening and trying to learn the different birds songs

      One of my favourites apps too. Love to open it up in new places to help identify what I’m hearing. It’s like my morning meditation. Great to see so many other users on here.

    16. Where were you?

      Note: Be wary of mimicry and Merlin especially if it picks up a starling or song thrush.
