In this talk Simon will tell us about the acoustic monitoring of birds where the recordings of songs and calls of birds are used to study species presence, migration, population and behaviour and the value of this technique in complementing or even replacing traditional survey techniques. Recent advances in technology have opened up the potential to deploy audio devices to record bird song and other wildlife sounds. Whether for backyard sound projects like nocmig or coordinated national surveys, passive acoustic monitoring offers lots of potential, but also some pitfalls. In this talk I will review what we can learn from listening to bird sounds and how and when we can deploy new technology to complement what we can do as birders and surveyors.
