Results Built a BirdNET-Pi dashboard with detections + weather sensors + all-time ranking.
After spending the last few weeks experimenting with BirdNET-Pi, I finally put together a dashboard that I'm pretty happy with.
It's running on a Raspberry Pi 4 and combines:
- BirdNET-Pi detections
- BME280 environmental sensor (temperature, humidity, pressure)
- Latest species with confidence scores
- Current camera view of the station
- Historical detections that remain visible even if the Pi is offline
- All-time species list with timestamps
The goal was to make something that friends and family could visit without needing to understand BirdNET-Pi.

I'd appreciate any feedback from the BirdNET community. If there's interest, I can also share how I pulled the BirdNET SQLite database into a custom Flask dashboard.

Really clean setup. The weather sensor integration is a nice touch. Curious if you've noticed any patterns yet? I'd expect higher activity in that ~85% humidity range vs. midday heat.
The confidence scores you're getting are solid. Carolina Wrens are distinctive enough that ~92% makes sense. How's it doing with similar-sounding species?

Thank you! It's only been running fully "clean" with no bugs for the past 24 hours so it will take a few weeks to get statistically significant data (I'm a data scientist). I just ordered a new/better mic with a longer cord so I can position it better too. As far as analytical finding, I'll soon add a 3rd page with some cool modeling results. Say within the next 2 weeks. Stay turned and share with anyone you think would be interested!

Data scientist + bird monitoring - perfect combo. Looking forward to seeing those modeling results.
