Still working with the parabolic mic configurations.
Rough photo and sound to illustrate only.
As a hybred between barrier and a no barrier stereo mic method used in
parabolic dishes, I constructed a T mic using the 183 elements.
Pictured without foam wind screens as seen through the dish.

Sound when focused at bird seed on the ground with quiet visiting
redpolls and pine grosbeaks at about 100feet. Note the sound of the
logging equipment a few miles away.

First segment of three is the raw stereo track.
Second segment is a mono track made by combining the two stereo channels.
Third segment is a mono track with one channel phase inverted prior to
combining the two stereo tracks.
I thinik it does a pretty good job of reducing the logging background
noise. Of course it can not reduce the background noise more than the
actual gain of the dish itself.
