But, birds aren't real.
This only seems to support the theory

A music and science lover has revealed that some birds can store and retrieve digital data. Specifically, he converted a PNG sketch of a bird into an audio waveform, then tried to embed it in the song memory of a young starling, ready for later retrieval as an image. Benn Jordan made a video of this feat, sharing it on YouTube, and according to his calculations, the bird-based data transfer system could be capable of around 2 MB/s data speeds.
Data on a bird ? This will convince people about birds being drones more now.

So a moving target of data you cant reliably recall and might get shot by someone looking for food. At least its neat though.

Do not what the bird?
Complement?
Conflagrate?
Carry in a cute baby stroller?
Don't

If you take control of enough birdhouses you can launch DDoS attacks.
Yeah. This could be in a plot in one of the episodes of the simpsons.

Some people will use anything but cloud storage
It’s cloud storage and terrestrial storage. And it’s multi cloud. It’s the ultimate cloud hybrid!

2MB/s / 16Mbps is enough for 4K HEVC video and audio. In theory you could encode a full movie with enough starlings.

You could find out which frame of the movie starlings like the best

There are only flying dinosaurs.

Average weight for a starling is less than 100g. The whole thing with head and feathers and bones and whatever. You'd have to be very hungry to hunt that. And I suspect if you shoot at it you'd pulverize it completely.
Though cats are going to be a problem.

I like Benn Jordan a lot but I really doubt a bird can sing 2 MB / s. I saw the spectrogram and it looked pretty fuzzy

Do you promise? All i want for Christmas is for starlings to fuck right off
Starlings are cooler than you, though.

Well, technically the beak connects directly to the cloaca.
Technically your mouth connects directly to your asshole...

The video is by Benn Jordan, I wholeheartedly recommend this video and entire channel. Guy is a world treasure.

The average lifespan of a starling is usually between two and five years.
