For the US birders, as the US spring migration gets underway don't forget to visit birdcast.info to access loads of useful migration data
This uses the same detection model as the whoBIRD android app. I've used it in a side by side test with Merlin and they do not give consistent results. They're in the same ball park, but really every detection (for both apps) should be verified with human ears. And I'm not sure that's possible with a 24/7 setup.
IT'S STILL AWESOME AND FUN! I hope the talented people that made this continue to develop it. I'm glad this was posted, but like OP said, not super practical.

Yes! I started doing this a few months ago and I'm glad I was able to familiarize myself with it before spring hit!
During installation, I'd recommend using the curl command provided by this fork: https://github.com/Nachtzuster/BirdNET-Pi That's what worked best for me anyway.
