Doug has some Sennheiser noise reducing headphones which proved to be very=
effective. For the ones using parabols, they might help to cancel
surrounding sounds and only let the parabol sound come through to your
ears. This might help very well in "finding" the best spot where to point
with the parabola. As you all know by now (??) the best place to point at
is not always exactly at the bird, but somewhere near it.
