The other thing I would say is: Are there green areas in the desert where
you will bee recording? All gillie suits that I have seen are green. A
grassland cammo suit may be better. Some companies like Jack Pyke make a cammo
net suit which may help keep you cool. Spend as much time as you can showing
them you mean no harm, move a little at a time etc. I have been spending
time with some local Muntjac etc so I sit against a tree with the sun behind me
and so far I have been having some very close encounters indeed. Simon. --- In

holding a parabola out in front of me, especially in the desert where
there's little vegetation as a backdrop. Does anyone have experience using
a Ghillie suit with a parabola? Greg Clark, are you out there?
