Bird Clock

Tom Atwell

This clock is in our living room. On the hour it makes the sound of the bird for that hour. Many of these birds live around us. I am constantly hearing the 7 o’clock bird outside.

I took my little camera and recorded each of the bird sounds. You can hear each one by clicking the note on the photo. They are all low quality files but at least you can get an idea what they sound like.

The little piece of tape that is at 12 o’clock is to slightly block the light on the light sensor. This sensor controls how loud the bird sounds are. In a completely dark room you don’t hear it at all. That little piece of tape has the effect of lowering the volume.
