The Corona pandemic has caused a dramatic silencing of human activities that is making the voices of nature resound on an unprecedented scale. In this unique situation in May 2020, the idea was born to make the birds’ voices heard. Local recordings for the DAWN CHORUS will be mapped worldwide.

They will be included in a scientific database for biodiversity research. From now on, the Dawn Chorus project will take place every year and thus provide important comparative data.
