This is an extremely handy tool to have around when you're getting dive-bombed by yet another bird protecting its turf and you say to yourself, "Gee, I wonder what the name of that bird is", as you run for shelter. Or when you mistakenly find yourself on the runway of a mass landing of geese, who according to this pamphlet, are from Canada. Typical snowbirds.
