This is my favorite style of birding, especially as I age and my feet hurt
from too much walking on hard surfaces. I wear camo, find a bit of good
bird habitat, tuck myself into it, and then wait. Sometimes nothing
happens, but sometimes I become enveloped in birds. Once I had a
Golden-cheeked Warbler land next to my head. I don't know how I managed it
but I kept absolutely silent and still, except for the big grin that spread
across my face.
Give it a try sometime if you have the opportunity, you will feel one with
the birds.

If you want quality looks, sit quietly and watch. Lose the khaki "birder's
uniform" and wear camouflage clothing, too.
