Might catch the unwary. Not sure what would follow a reply but I'd guess at pfishing for account details.

Not seen that but the plant / tree / wild flower (aka weed) ones work well. I imagine you'd need a decent mic for birdsong. The ones identifying tunes such as shazam work well.

There are apps that produce birdsong too. Fun for pranking twitchers 

I got this app ( perish the word ) that identifies birds song .
Unfortunately I can't make it work .☹️

They are often just links to websites or phone apps.

Point a phone camera at one and it should work or there are phone apps that will handle them.

I very seldom use my Peurgeot 206.. she is 23 years old.. 
My local garage where I purchased her new do my MOT and if they think she needs a service they do that as well.. They collect her and bring her home... They are just a couple of (lanes) away.. 

Blackbirds are amongst the best songsmiths with a big variety not just a repetitive  call. Not many birds in my garden which is tiny but often hear a variety of birds when out walking.

Yes.. The one with all the patterns in a square..

I'm low mileage too but not lots of short journeys which are not good for cars. I tend to mostly pick up a bagful of shopping several times a week on the return leg of a walk with the occasional trip by car to stock up on bulk stuff. I don't use supermarket deliveries. I do use Amazon quite a lot.

I just let them follow the service schedule.

No.  I wouldn't want a driverless taxi,  train, plane,  or anything else.

Another thing is,  I always wonder if a driverless car hit mine,  how would you claim on their insurance?    You could hardly ask  for anyone's insurance details!
