By dogs, hopefully?

You can't really go sticking a hide up anywhere as to many they look like something permanant rather than short-stay, you should always get permission from the landowner in advance. I have never erected a hide on land with free public access but I have had dogs sniff around me on private land... and they seem to quickly get bored and move on...but don't move a tripod with a dog about, they don't like them!!

What may be a better idea is one of the throw-over type hides, so you just sit on a little stool with tripod in front of you but covered by camo, with an aperture for your lens to go through (bit restrictive for visibility though).. this wouldn't give an air of permanance about it.

cheers,
Andy
