Hi Everyone,
I was curious if your just going out to shoot bird photos and don't plan to bring a hide or lay on the ground with a beanbag, etc... does cammo still help?
I'm new to the camo / hide technique but interested in learning. I've read birds see colors differently than we do and was wondering how well it would help if you were sitting in a metal folding chair digiscoping with some cammo clothing and netting to break up the profile of the chair and maybe tripod.
Does the small/medium tent sized hides work for the time your there to photo or would it spook some smarter birds off since its not what they are used to seeing? "Where did that new odd looking bush come from?" I could hear a weary and more intelligent bird thinking.
Just curious of your experience with cammo and birding photos.
I plan to buy a DSLR for general photography and save for a lens to photo birds with.
Thanks!
