Park or Bird: Recognize the species of a bird in our photos

Park or bird

Park or Bird is an interesting project that Flickr has been developing for some time, where everyone (without having a subscribed account) could get to review each of their photographs and find out if there is an exotic bird species there.

For this reason, many people have come to rescue each of the photographs taken on their different trips to try to recognize either of the two environments that this online application identifies called Park or Bird by Flickr, there are a few very interesting aspects to take into account before starting to use it and that we will mention below.

Work coverage offered by Park or Bird

We have given a summary of the good news in the previous paragraph, perhaps the most unpleasant part of all coming, because Park or Bird being a project that Flickr is implementing, the same may 'not' have an effective result for birds or national parks outside of the United States. In any case, it is well worth trying to use this resource to recognize some of the bird species that we may take by accident in a simple photograph with our mobile devices. Next, we will analyze how to work with this tool, the pros and cons as well as the different requirements that are needed to be able to have effective results.

Requirements to use Park or Bird with our photographs

  1. Being an online application, it is easy to determine that in the first instance we are going to need an internet browser. This could involve the use of any type of platform in terms of personal computers, and may have a certain level of effectiveness on mobile devices although, in the latter, working exclusively with the browser.
  2. The second requirement that is required is thatthat the photographs are in good definition, that is, that as far as possible they are not blurred and that birds or trees can be easily identifiable.
  3. As a third requirement we could mention that these photographs must contemplate solely and exclusively scenarios of national parks and wild birds, which means that it will be of absolutely no use if there are human characters in the photos.
  4. Geo-location is another aspect to take into account, although according to Flickr (the developer of Park or Bird), it can be ignored.

Regarding this last aspect that we have mentioned, it is also suggested that all the images and photographs that we analyze with the online application must have been taken within the United States, this being perhaps one of the restrictions that for many could be annoying when living in another region of the planet.

How Park or Bird works with my photographs

Well, if we have taken into account each and every one of the considerations that we mentioned above (by way of requirements) then we will be ready to work with this online application.

All we need to do is go to the official website of the same with the following link. Once there we will admire towards the upper left side a small four with broken lines, a place where we will have to drag and drop any photo that we have on our personal computer.

If our photographs meet the requirements that we have mentioned above, detailed information of the same will immediately appear on the left side and where, it will be defined in the first instance if this photograph was taken in a national park within the United States or if in the same, there are wild birds.

Park or Bird is still in a testing stage, so there could be a different number of errors. In the initial part of this article we have placed a photograph in which a group of butterflies are present, something that for this online application are simple birds. This means that we still have to wait some time to be able to admire this fully developed tool, although for the moment we could carry out a certain number of tests that may offer an attractive result that will be highly appreciated especially by bird lovers. .
