@Sarah111well Nice, thank you for sharing this! I'll take a look. And also, for checking the recordings with Merlin. I ended up downloading the app and recording the bird in a quieter environment, and it said "no suggestions" 
I also listened all of the birds that the app suggested for my location (including all gulls) without success. I'll try to check the website and see if I come across something...

Hello, bird-savvy people of Mastodon! -
Hello, bird-savvy people of Mastodon!@Sarah111well I see! Hmm. I tried recording the bird again, this time without any other birds around. Just curious, does it report a Common Gull this time?

Hello, bird-savvy people of Mastodon!@Sarah111well Hmm I'm not sure, is it maybe because of the other birds in the recording? There are lots of seagulls around here, but I've never heard that sort of honk from them. I've only heard this bird this year, and it started probably a month ago. Do you have any other ideas on how I could search for it?

Hello, bird-savvy people of Mastodon!Hello, bird-savvy people of Mastodon! Could anyone help me identify this bird at about the seventh second of this recording? I don't want to install an app to do that, and I also think asking humans once in a while is nice.

"You also shouldn’t pretend that by cognitively offloading a task, you will magically get smarter because you can focus on more advanced and complex skills."You also shouldn’t pretend that by cognitively offloading a task, you will magically get smarter because you can focus on more advanced and complex skills. More advanced and complex skills are based on simpler ones. If you don’t have the simpler skills, you can’t develop the more advanced ones. You can’t think strategically about chess unless you know how the pieces move. And the cognitive offload makes it less likely we will get the practice that lets us acquire the basic skills."
