I my self build em as I need em the day of the hunt with any downed limbs bout waist to mid chest high some are half moon others have a back just depends on back cover ( pine trees etc. ) then I doctor em up with weeds like golden rod some have taken an hour others 5 minto construct. Like this one this is a 5 min blind made in the dark the inside the main part of this blind was a small apple tree that had a nice low over hanging branch thatmade a roof for over head cover. Even tho there was no leaves it provided good cover. Sorry I don't have a more elaborate pic of some of my other blinds but just ask watch em fall or polish hammer how fancy the blind was we hunted out of a few weeks ago. They said all it was missing was a maid and room service.
Use what's available but not so much right at the blind location cause that may alarm the birds walk around a little to gather your blind supplies. I have a folding hand saw that fits in my pack well I like my blinds thick except the very top so I can stay hidden but still see with out poping my head out like a gopher.
Think Fort!!! And you will have it.

You can use blind material and mix in a little natural cover or just build it out of your surroundings. Camo yourself from head to toe and restrict your movement. Go to beginner and advanced techniques and start reading.
With blinds you are only limited by your amagination. I like to have and mantain many permanant blinds. I have blinds for night shoots and morning shoots. I also like to use all natural materials,but I will wrap the insde with camo netting in the fall so the birds cant see through my blind. I also like having a roof of netting in the back of the blind to hide under,its my personal preferance. I always have my morning blinds ready the night before all I want to do is put out decoys the next morning,I am very fanatical about being early and having my stuff out for first lite,I dont care if I wait an hour in the dark.Anyone that hunts with me who is not on time does not hunt with me again. I goof around in my blind waiting till first lite clipping and primping the creature comforts in my blind while I wait,when I hear crows of in the distance I soft call with hand calls first.
Here are some of my favs.

Pictures 1,2,5, are the same. 3,13 are the same. 7,8 are the same.4,14 are the same.15,16, are the same.17,18 are the same. I showed some twice because they were taken at different times of year,so they need different types of camo.I just wanted to give the new member some ideas.
