Abstract
A hunting blind allows the hunter to lie on his back in an inclined position. The hunter's head rests on a head rest. A gun rest is provided laterally across the hunter's body. A pair of flaps cover the hunter and are easily openable when the hunter brings his or her gun into a shooting position and/or moves to a sitting position. The blind is collapsible, requires no assembly in the field, and may be carried on the hunter's back like a backpack.
