We are providing as many participants as possible with access to recording equipment consisting of
ParaChirp parabolic reflectors which we
have developed in partnership with Mark Adams of Time and Space Learning to be compatible with locally available
smartphones. You can buy your own parachirp

Recordings generated by Planet Birdsong’s citizen scientists are stored globally with
e-bird, and we are collaborating with the
Macaulay Library at
Cornell University to ensure access to locally recorded bird sounds for both citizen scientists and specialists.
For example, data collected in Rwanda is also supplied to the
Rwanda Biodiversity
Information System for use in local natural science.
