Digiscoping with a binocular?

Can you use a binocular for digiscoping (taking pics through the eyepiece with a small digital camera)? I've done it in a pinch by resting the binocular against a convenient object and then handholding a digital camera over the eyepiece. It's awkward and clumsy and not very efficient, but with patience, you can get some decent pics, especially with high grade binoculars. If you want to get serious about digiscoping with a binocular, however, mounting the binocular to a tripod is the way to go. I still prefer to handhold the camera, though, as universal digiscoping adapters are too tight a squeeze on most binoculars.
