Editorial interest 89/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Chinese-language web tool that identifies nearby bird calls and turns confirmed encounters into illustrated nature cards.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-19 issue.

For: Birdwatchers keeping a private field journal
Worth noticing: BirdNET candidates require personal confirmation before a species enters the illustrated bird garden.

Field notes

Tingniao records short clips from a device microphone and presents BirdNET-generated candidates for the listener to check manually. Confirmed species receive a date, optional 36-character note, and an illustrated card; recordings are not retained, while garden records remain in the current browser and can be backed up. The site documents historical illustration sources, CC licenses, device requirements, and the limitation that imported audio cannot unlock a card.
