1. Birding
2. Not birding
3. Multiple uses with no major use, but birding a large part of it

Just curious. We have astronomers and all here.

Mine:just birding.
 
Andy, what would you like to add?
1, 2, 3 are the major divisions here. I do not really need to know if it is astronomy or boating or hunting. But they can explain all that if willing.

ok, no problem, I'll just do the options you have... it just didn't look right to me but i can't think of anything better and everyone seems to get the idea.
cheers,
Andy
 
As we're a birding/nature site and almost all birders will view other nature with the binos, I've taken the liberty of adding birding/nature as one.


cheers,
Andy
 
I see what Andy might be alluding to regarding Tero's categories.

1 and 3 OK, but 2? This IS Bird Forum after all. I doubt there will be many 2s, if any.

BTW, I'm a 3. Breakdown is something like 95% birding, 4% astronomy, 1% concerts.

Addendum: A lot of posts at the same time! I now see the poll Andy

What, use the bins ... but they'd get all messy.

The wording is rather odd, Tero.

1. X
2. Not X
3. Neither of the above

Finnish three-way logic perhaps? ;)

Perhaps some extra options:

4. Viewing dollar bills and other resolution targets

I'm mostly 1 with a tiny bit astronomy and some 4 too.
