    Unidentified Bird Call UK Garden

    Don't you think it has the up-down rhythm of a goldcrest song?

    I ran it through the ChirpOMatic app (much more sensitive than Merlin) and it suggests Goldcrest.

    Unknown bird song from Masai Mara, June 2024

    I think you are right that there are two birds in the foreground. I'd say that one is a Common Reed Warbler, and the other maybe a Common Bulbul?

    Help identify this bird, London UK

    Merlin has to be very confident about a result before it will show it. This means that it is prone to not giving a result at all. If you want a more sensitive app that would have identified the sound, I recommend that you try the ChirpOMatic app :)

    I’d like to crop and post an audio file from Merlin off my iPhone.

    ? I was analysing Derbyfella's recording, which was seeking to distinguish between chaffinch, chiffchaff, willow warbler and redstart.

    I’d like to crop and post an audio file from Merlin off my iPhone.

    In future you might consider using the ChirpOMatic app. It is as accurate as Merlin, but better designed for the end user. It includes a range of options for exporting the recording from the phone (email, social media, bluetooth to computer etc), very simply. Edit: I ran your recording through...

    Singing female-type seedeater in Bucaramanga, Colombia

    It's comparative, 30% is low, but it is a lot higher than 7%.

    Singing female-type seedeater in Bucaramanga, Colombia

    For what it's worth, I ran it through the ChirpOMatic analyser for Central/South America (a work in progress), and it put Chesntut-bellied in first place on 30% probability, and Thick-billed Seed-Finch on only 7%.

    mystery noise in reeds -- Bärenbrücker Teiche, near Cottbus, Germany

    I ran it through ChirpOMatic and it suggests Red-necked Grebe. Is that a possibility?

    Bird ID help - UK, Coventry

    The ChirpOMatic app confirms the Blackcap and Blue Tit with high levels of probability. However, it identified your Chiffchaff as a Common Redstart. The Great Tit recording was too mixed for a definite result on a recording of that length. I agree with others about the length of the other two- I...
