Goretantath comments on I Saved a PNG Image To A Bird

Without watching the video, I'm assuming the guy didn't actually save data to a bird but assigned data to an identifier the bird can give off, like its shape or something.

Also without watching my guess was that it was sending out a sound and relying on the birds repeating that sound. So like storing it in the bird's memory

This is basically it. The sound is a 179kb datafile.

Haven't watched the video yet either, but that guy's content is usually very interesting and deep. Good production value too.
