Stop and Listen.

Let nature’s voice be heard. Wherever you are.

This is the motto of Dawn Chorus, the Citizen Science and Art project by the Naturkundemuseum Bayern with BIOTOPIA LAB and the Landesbund für Vogelschutz, inviting people worldwide to collect bird sounds for biodiversity research, art, and to raise awareness about the wonders and threats to nature.

Each recording is a tiny puzzle piece. With your help, we can complete this puzzle together—documenting biodiversity through sound to explore changes. At the same time, consciously perceiving this wonderful natural spectacle aims to sharpen your senses and awaken your creativity. Let’s listen to the voice of nature, record it, and give it more attention!
