Hi All,
I am currently helping to design a couple of bird hides for the artificial
wader roost we are building on Bribie Island, SEQld.
I have BOCA Report No 8: Bird-hides and Boardwalks, which is really helpful
to prompt my memory of what I regard as important in such a hide.
I would appreciate from members any helpful comments they might wish to make
along the lines of how it is best for the birds, what you especially
appreciate in a bird hide, or what irritates you. For instance, I always
find it irritating that the scope sits back from the viewing hole, because
of the space required by the tripod, and so a sloping viewing wall might
overcome that.
I am not seeking to start up a major controversy, but comments would be
helpful if you think of something useful. I think it might also be
interesting for list members, because surely there will be others in the
same position as me at some time or other.
Cheers,
Jill
