Here's some of what I picked up before the clouds rolled in. This is 9 minutes of migrating birds played back at 20x speed with trails to emphasize their movements. So many birds up there - this is a pretty narrow field of view! #birds

The birds are on the move tonight! I'm recording the sky with my thermal scope again. Definitely lots of birbs up there. #birds

I am extremely interested in the 300-600. I've rented the 600 f/4 before and it's just too damn big for regular use IMO. And being able to zoom out is often important. I am assuming the 300-600 will be very sharp and work well with teleconverters.

This is about 100 minutes worth of bird migration paths directly over my house, played back in just under one minute. Captured in infrared around 1am last night (October 2nd). Approximately 10 degree field of view, looking straight up. The occasional bat too! Most birds heading southwest. #birds

We've got a visiting Brown Booby here in central North Carolina. I took the kayak out for optimal viewing! #birds

I dunno if this is the same style of chair you were referring to. 😅 I feel like there were several types of woven chairs. Definitely an aluminum frame though.

Just stumbled on this photo of me sitting in one of those chairs. I can still imagine opening it and the feel of it. This was a long one that had multiple positions.
