Having problems getting the hawk pictures? It's easy to tell a mirror lens from the circular thing in the middle of the front glass that makes the doughnut shaped background highlights.

Ever think about a monopod? It's possible to use one while still in your car. Or carrying it it's quicker to get ready to shoot with it instead of trying to extend the legs of a tripod each time you move around. Or roll your window half way down and use that to support your lens.

Don't know if it's stillavailable but years ago I saw an ad for a bean bag camera support. You attached your camera and you could use just about any surface for a support. maybe some other rteaders can tell youm where to get one

You can make those with some fabric and some rice. Don't have a sewing machine then use some fabric glue.
