Will have to look into more, but from what I've seem it's an evolution focused lab based in separating finch species. Seems to be a premade lab
Ok so it's actually really cool! The premise is you're trying to sort finches into two groups based on song sound, spectrograms, beak shape and appearance, at the end you can check how close you were. Theres another activities for differentiating finches that's not quite as related and tabs to learn about spectrograms and Daphne Major. Both are pretty basic crash courses but would be very helpful for a beginner or an introductory activity. I'll definitely provide a walk through because it's super fun!!

A bit outdated, but links out to other interesting bird data sources, which include a lot of citizen science.

The modules, "Species Concepts in Birds" and "Sound Trees" use song data. Lessons are well developed with learning objectives, instructor guides, student handouts, how-to's on the Macaulay library and RavenViewer, and some assessment ideas.

This is a fun little game created by The Cornell Lab of Ornithology that can help you familiarize yourself not only with the songs of various birds, but also with the general idea of a spectrogram. With enough practice, just looking at a spectrogram with allow you to imagine a pretty accurate song before even listening to it.
