 I'd not thought of that aspect.  It would offer so many opportunities to 
monitor things such as movements of individuals - gone would be those 
really annoying times when Regent honeyeaters only show one set of bands, 
or have lost a band, meaning that you are looking at one of a possible 16 
individuals - but which one!
 I assume such an application would remove the need for bird banding 
entirely, or would you need to program in each DNA individual profile to 
monitor specific birds?
 I see that it's currently 4.2 degrees in Canberra (6.6 degrees in 
Dubbo).  I understand it's snowing, and 1.6 degrees, in Orange (at least 
on nearby Mt Canobolas). The cold must be interfering with our ability to 
think coherently.
 
From a sunny but cool Brissie, I'd have to agree!!
