Spotting Scopes: The new way to meet people

A story about an eagle nest near a road shows what a little initiative can do:
...

At times no one is watching the nest, but as soon as someone sets up a spotting scope, the looky-loos start lining up.

On March 26, Jack Seileman of San Diego was on a retreat in Mesa Grande with his men's club. He told his five buddies he was taking them on a “magical mystery tour.” So he drove out, set up a spotting scope, aimed it at the nest and told the men to get out of the vehicle and look through the lens. His only requirement was that each not tell the next what he saw.

One by one, they all looked. Mark Adams didn't tell Ed Maupin, and on down the line to James McKeen, James Yunker and finally Skeet Frazee.

Who needs the Discovery Channel when there's a live show like this?
