Video & behaviour timeline
The dashed cyan outline marks the selected region of interest. Fading dots show each bird's recent path. A coloured box appears only while an action was confidently recognised; its label and confidence describe that result. Windows the model was unsure about are left unmarked here and counted as uncertain time in the timeline below. Click a bird's row to follow just that one.
