Although I am sighted but I did most of my recording essentially blind 
because I had a huge Roche parabola through which nothing could be 
seen.  With the big Roche I had to play around for a very short time  
until I could hear that I was dead on the bird but then that parabola 
system had a very sharp focus and when you were on the bird you really 
knew it.  I do not find that with the Telinga.    I am sure the lack of 
sight has nothing to do with your ability to record with a parabola.  
Best of luck to you.  You will do a great job.  I am looking forward to 
hearing your results.
