While not being truly ethical, does anyone have access to the full article that they may like to share.

I couldn't read the whole article as I am not a subscriber to New Scientist but the description of birdwatchers as people who drive all night and pee at the side of the road would describe the field actions of most outdoor scientists. Whether we are sane or not is another matter. I prefer to use the term eccentric myself.

However birdwatching is fun. It can be engaged in at any level and is available to all.
