Clever binocular trick for a Tuesday
When I was a naturalist at the Louisville Nature Center, we used to do programs for 3, 4 and 5 year olds. We had sophisticated binoculars, but they didn't work so well with this age group. We started taking old rolls of toilet paper and punched holes in them. We'd tape the tubes together and then string the rolls so they looked like binoculars. It may be a quirky truth, but the little kids spotted many birds while we hiked through the forest with our fancy goggles.
I recommend giving it a try. You'd be surprised by what you're able to focus on. Those of you who have a crappy outlook on life, just might find yourself looking beyond your misery.
