* How is "specimen" defined in the Code? It seems to me that a Bird 
that's captured, handled and photographed or drawn, and released with 
the recognition that it's part of a systematic investigation, and as a 
substitute for a preserved specimen (in the usual sense) is different 
from a basking Turtle that's merely snapped as a record of "occurrence."
