If you are a Survivor fan, you will be familiar with the Buff.  “Drop your buffs, we’re switching tribes”.  Well you don’t have to be a contestant to have one, you can order your own in a wide variety of colours (but stick to the muted nature shade for birding).  I got one and it comes in handy for keeping my long hair out of the way and keeping bugs off my forehead and neck.

This is how to wear it.
