Welcome to Battling Birds Data Exploration!

Thanks to the amazing effort of more than 2,000 volunteers, we have completed classifying more than 10,000 clips on Zooniverse for the Battling Birds project! Our web developers have been busy translating your data into interactive charts, and we are excited to share them with you!

Now it’s your turn to see and explore the data with these new interactive charts. In the next four weeks, we will feature a new theme each week using the data you collected to explore our research questions. We’ll take a look at your comments on the website, as well as in an upcoming live Q&A session, to surface the most interesting and important findings. Then, we will work together to publish them in a public post!

When looking at the visualizations, think about our main research question: “How does the number of species and the number of individuals affect interactions (specifically displacements) at a feeder?” Does behavior change when there are more individuals at the feeder? What about if there are more species at the feeder? Are there any other questions that pop up along the way? Make sure to share your observations, questions, and ideas in the comments below each featured visualization. 

To get started, check out the blog posts or explore data.
