	tl;dr: Fugleramme is a Raspberry Pi project that uses BirdNET-Go to identify birds by audio in real time, then displays matching species on an Inky Impression e-ink panel (or web kiosk) using hand-curated public-domain 1800s natural history illustrations. The library covers 400+ species with 800+ cutouts, weighted toward Scandinavian/British/Central European plates, with birds sized by body mass on a textured page. Code is MIT-licensed, installable via script, Docker, or alongside an existing BirdNET-Go instance.
	HN Discussion: ↑Project is magical and inspiring for creative builders ↑E-ink displays are joyful, low-power devices well-suited for such ambient projects ↑Project inspired others to build similar bird-identification frames on their own platforms •Technical clarification that BirdNET is a traditional neural network, not an LLM ~Would benefit from a video demo to convey motion and sound
