"That's what a visitor asked as he entered the front door.

"Why is that thing over there?"

Because after being up for several weeks on my deck without incident, my hunting blind, used for bird and squirrel photography, had to be brought in because the wind blew it over.

I'm going to have to anchor it to the deck and the current idea is to put locking plastic strips around the deck slats and then use the tie-down loops on the blind to secure it to the deck.

I'll also open zippers on all sides so that wind can blow through and hopefully, I'll be able to get shots this coming winter, than I did last winter, when I had to shoot through a window or sliding door.
