Ah, but what about a camera telephoto viewfinder. Should we accept
views through an SLR camera where you see the actual photons from the
bird, but not a digital camera where the photons are created
electronically. :-) :-) :-)

Consider the (?)physics of it. If you're looking at a bird through
binoculars/scope, you are technically still seeing light rays from
the actual bird as all the lenses do is bend the light. If you're
watching a webcam, you're not seeing light from the actual bird.
How's that for a technical argument ;)

What about a live web cam - like they use for nesting peregrines or
beached cargo vessels?

Does it count if you i/d it through glass, like by using a scope?
