About this listen

 This week on Best Bets for Pets, Michelle Fern chats with David Mann, founder of Haikubox — the innovative backyard bird listening device that’s revolutionizing birdwatching and conservation. From his childhood birding adventures in Cornell’s Sapsucker Woods to earning a PhD in bioacoustics from MIT and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, David’s lifelong passion for birds has taken flight with Haikubox. Developed with longtime colleague Dr. Holger Klinck at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Haikubox uses cutting-edge passive acoustic monitoring to automatically identify birds by their songs. More than just a high-tech gadget, it’s an educational tool, a citizen science platform, and a conservation initiative all rolled into one. Whether you're a seasoned birder, a curious beginner, or a teacher looking to inspire young minds, tune in to learn how Haikubox is helping people reconnect with nature — one chirp at a time.
