[cayugabirds-l] question of the day
OK folks-- hoping to crowd-source the answer to this question. Of course i will include the requisite warning against birding WHILE driving... But maybe someone has an answer they are passionate about. I'm thinking a hybrid hybrid would have great appeal. Or a self-driving Google car! *Dear Cornell Lab,* *What is the best vehicle by which to bird in your opinion? What vehicle is considered to be best to enjoy birding? Convenience, space, space to put stuff and yet be handy, price, and of course view from all locations in vehicle!* Thanks for any thoughts!

One's own two legs, and a backpack. A bike with panniers is good, but not as good.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] question of the day
While I agree with Pete, some of us... me, at this stage of life and my now-deceased and dear friend Caissa Wilmer... have physical limitations but don't want to give up the joy of birding. About vehicles... I used to have a Subaru Legacy which had good-sized windows, a hatchback for carrying stuff and four-wheel drive. Had to let that car go, but it was a good choice... for me. (I know, not a hybrid. Shame on me.) Kathleen On 3/12/15 10:37 AM, Pete M. Marchetto wrote: One's own two legs, and a backpack. A bike with panniers is good, but not as good.

Could we possibly direct the rest of these responses directly to Marc, and not to the list?
