My Port Hills audio recorders seem to have detected a ruru (morepork) in Kennedy's Bush. This morning I listened to the sections of recording that BirdNet had identified with moderate certainty as being riflemen (no, these were baby korimako), pīpipi (no, these were a combination of riroriro and piwakawaka singing at once), and ruru. Surprisingly, the ruru seem to be ruru, just five detections in total over a 10 day stretch from Kennedy's Bush.
I've just posted them on #iNaturalist, where they're the first ruru from the Port Hills. I recently heard that someone had heard a ruru at Living Springs, and eBird has one record, without a recording, from Hackthorne Road from 2023. I'm not aware of any ruru in Kennedys Bush or elsewhere in the Port Hills.
It's promising, if true. Oddly, my owl was singing in the day time. Perhaps it's a young bird travelling.
Have a listen and please disagree if you know of another local bird that would make similar calls.

@limebar Setting it up in #openbsd #audio #audioMonitoring is like this. https://www.openbsdhandbook.com/multimedia/#recording-a-monitor-mix-of-all-audio-playback
After which #ffmpeg #sndio
ffmpeg -f sndio -i snd/0.mon out.ogg(If I am playing my mic into system sound, I guess I could add -f sndio -i snd/1 to tell ffmpeg to mix my mic)

Here’s a story on #RNZ of a project working to increase the numbers of mohua, the NZ yellowhead, in part of southern Aotearoa. Mohua are an endemic NZ bird (in an endemic bird family), once abundant through the South Island, but now very rare, and endangered. My wife Laura is working with a team on a high tech way of monitoring mohua populations, and individuals, with a network of audio recorders.
