π£ NEW! Iβve just released the BIGGEST and perhaps most creative project Iβve ever worked on!
βSearching for Birdsβ searchingforbirds.visualcinnamon.com π€
A project, an article, an exploration that dives into the data that connects humans with birds, by looking at how we search for birds.
#rstats
Another vote for A) inside out. Cool!
