How to watch people, ducks and other skittish carbon based life forms

As a trained observer of the human condition I have learned that the key to successful people watching is to blend seamlessly into the background.

As the most successful duck hunters do.

Like ducks, people are skittish creatures.

But listen, you can’t build a duck blind in a people rich environment and expect nobody to notice.

Having diligently experimented over the years I at last stumbled upon the perfect, um, people blind.

Behind which to conceal myself.

So that skittish people will not sense my threatening presence.

And scatter, duck like, to the four winds.

It works so well that I now have a patent pending.

Hemingway would be so proud!
