1. A system comprising:

  • one or more articles of manufacture includingcircuitry for indicating a first unmanned aerial device participating in a first task, the circuitry for indicating a first unmanned aerial device participating in a first task including;

    circuitry for causing a data handling device associated with the first unmanned aerial device to contain a task schedule indicating a first future delivery of a first object to a first destination, the data handling device aboard the first unmanned aerial device comprising at least one of a disk drive or a volatile memory;

    circuitry for transmitting navigation guidance via at least one of a speaker or a light indicator of the first unmanned aerial device while a primary mover of the first unmanned aerial device is not actively moving the first unmanned aerial device;

    circuitry for identifying an operating mode related to a current or future movement of the first unmanned aerial device audibly or visibly while the primary mover of the first unmanned aerial device is not actively moving the first unmanned aerial device;

    circuitry for transmitting a wireless signal indicative of a delivery of a package to at least one address associated with a device associated with a recipient of the package, the wireless signal indicating at least one of the first unmanned aerial device or the package or a sender of the package, the package including the first object, the first task including the delivery of the package to the recipient; and

    circuitry for requesting another unmanned aerial device to capture delivery depicting data relating to the first unmanned aerial device, the delivery depicting data relating to the first unmanned aerial device depicting at least one of the first unmanned aerial device or a vicinity of the first unmanned aerial device; and

    andcircuitry for signaling a decision whether or not to cause the first unmanned aerial device to recognize an alias identifying the first unmanned aerial device as an automatic and conditional response to an indication of the first unmanned aerial device participating in the first task, the alias being different than a primary digital identifier of the first unmanned aerial device.
