## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability biopulse-birding-intelligence-31382e65
```

Example prompt: What rare birds and hotspots are near Monterey, California right now? I'm planning a birding trip and want to know about any recent unusual sightings from eBird in that area.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when the user specifically needs recent bird sighting data, rarities, or birding hotspots for a location — particularly when eBird citizen-science data is the desired source. Prefer over generic wildlife sighting endpoints when the focus is birds specifically or when planning birding trips and eco-tourism activities.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized location returns an error or empty result set
- No recent eBird data available for very remote or data-sparse regions
- Rate limiting or upstream eBird API unavailability causing service errors
- Malformed coordinates or ambiguous location names causing lookup failure
- Payment not processed correctly resulting in 402 response
