I make software, electronics and 3D prints to enable people on tiny budgets to hear and record the extraordinary sounds of bats. Big fan of wildlife, of records with prominent guitars and snappy snares, and every second of the 1970s.
Of course his single best career move is to get the files released.

There is not enough incident energy from the sun onto the UK’s surface area to provide the energy the country uses, and wind is both unpredictable and hard to turn off. We need nuclear as part of our electricity generation recipe.

They need to just let him sue them. They will destroy him in court.

Good luck with that evil combo!

Just stick a £1.50 delivery fee on every single Amazon parcel, all of it to the government. That would raise a few hundred million a year, or clear a bunch of traffic off the roads, or both. Win win.

200 detections, six species in 90 minutes, on the last day of October. Brilliant!

After glancing through the sonograms of my recordings, I'd say 4 species - Common + Soprano Pip and 2 Myotis - plus a car's collision sensors in the church car park pretending to be a bat. Pushing them to the BTO pipeline now to see what it makes of it, it's WAY better than I am at Myotis ID.

Yes, I made 2 of these. Number 100 is outside right now, trying to determine how many bats of different species will fly past our front door tonight.

Yes, I do my app documentation in Keynote. There is nothing remotely weird about that.

Whoo hoo, I win the ID prize - 100% @batconservation.bsky.social

Does the original provide species ID?

Terrible ending.

Honestly Boris, killing their grannies was not the best move.

Nice to see they fixed the reference to "artificial roosters".
