Hi!
So I had this really dumb idea. Already explained in the title. But would it work? They seem to be capable of some pretty astounding stuff.
I'm not sure if it would be possible to train one to have a long "list" of rare birds that it was always on the lookout for, but perhaps it could be trained to search for just a few specific species? Or maybe to just target a single species at a time?
Not that it would make birding more fun or anything. I'm just picturing finding hundreds of rarities with such a wacky method and I'm thinking, "what if it's actually possible?"
Thoughts?
