I'd love an API of some sort. I have some birdwatching/tracking ideas that require I can id a bird by sound and Merlin would be the best route if they just let people us it ...

For that you want to use BirdNet:

Merlin is trained on the same source as BirdNet.

You can also use the iNaturalist API for visual ids, for what it's worth.
