The site below is an article on the bird breathalyzer from MECHANICAL ENGINEERING magazine. By using this invention, one can see (smell) what migrating birds have been eating by testing their breaths. It's an interesting article with a picture of a bird undergoing a breathalyzer test. No kidding! Question: Wonder if they plan to check birds (robins, cedar waxwings, etc.) that have been eating fermented berries and issue them MWI's for "Migrating While Intoxicated?" Forgive me, please. I HAD to ask it!
