Michael,
Sounds like you need to invest in a bird hide clamp. They are basically a 
C-clamp with a small ball head to mount the scope on. The C-clamp can be 
attached to any convenient part of the hide. The major tripod manufacturers 
produce various clamps. I have used a Manfrotto Universal Super-clamp a few 
times. I have seen some interesting home made jobs around the traps.
Cheers,
Carl Clifford
