Beanbags
Beanbags
are the simplest car support device, sitting on the door
window they quite happily support lenses up to 600mm.
The beanbag shown is the one I use, which has double
pockets and is made by Wildlife Watching Supplies. The
reason for the double pocket is to make a “V” shape when
mounted on the window, which hugs your lens / telescope
a lot tighter (thus making it more stable). Be aware of
cheap imitations, there are several similar designs on
the market but all the others are too small to hold
anything substantial. They are cheap for a reason.
Beanbags are highly portable and whenever I travel I
always take a couple of empty ones with me. As I write
this I am on safari in Africa and I am using my beloved
beanbag on every game drive. The vehicle has no windows
or bars so no other mount is practical (see later) hence
the beanbag on the dashboard supports my 500mm lens
perfectly.
Using a beanbag however has its problems. For bird
watching, where stability is paramount, the beanbag is
not the steadiest platform for a telescope. Secondly, as
shown in the diagram, the beanbag also fits lengthways
along the car window,

Rafting Kenya
Alt 1,200 - 1,100m Just 95km from Nairobi,
this "pool drop" river offers an exciting
day of White-Water thrills (and often
spills). The adventure starts with 3km. of
easy class II and III white-water, where
there is plenty of opportunity to gain and
practice the paddle skills required to run
the lower part of the river. A 6 km section
follows, and now we have an hour or more to
relax, view the abundance of birdlife
around, cool off with a swim - it's very
warm compared with rivers in the States or
Europe, (around 20C),
