I use a Think Tank belt system. Beauty of it is the ability to add and change various bags, depending what I'm taking out with me.

Excellent in my experience. Even picked up a roosting h Barn Owl in a box!

For me it's finding those birds that I'd have missed with bins scope.

I'd give my right knacker for the Millers team that beat them 6-0.

Hmm, wonder if this is a pre-roost. 17:30 when I had them.

Cheers Kevin. Picked them up in the thermal and expected them to be Reed Bunts!

I'm still birding the same areas, so quite possibly.

My first trip in 87 sounded very similar to yours Gavin, though I only had a measly 15 ticks. Here I am, hands in pocket, at the Philly Vireo, with Rob Fray looking in the opposite direction to everyone else. Halcyon days, twitching not the same nowadays.

Crikey, there are some touchy buggers on there, protecting their Swaros like they gave birth to them! I've Leica, Zeiss and Swaro. The latter have just come back from rearmouring and are already marking, I expect they'll be back in Austria in less than 2 yrs. The Leica & Zeiss will see me out!

The one's that piss me off the most are those that "scream detrimental to wildlife", when, in cases, such as this it is not true. What they really mean, is that it's going to spoil my view and depreciate the value of my house.

There's a proposed site on my doorstep. It's currently arable desert. I can't see the solar farm making it any worse to be honest.

40 years of it, and I've got a face like Sid James' ball bag! Having had a BCC we need to apply the sunscreen!

Feel sorry for him. He's a good bloke and given a decent budget, he would do the job asked of him. Sadly both his roles have been on low budgets. Suspect a lot of our fans would be over the moon to see him in the dugout at 3pm tomorrow, but sadly it won't be.

First time I've used this one. It has 3 feet that unfold, which make it very stable. Even on full zoom it was very stable.

Would still welcome Warne back to the New York. Ground was buzzing when he was there.

Never managed to pick this one up (back in November) in scope or bins. Without the thermal it would have been missed. Pulsar Axion XQ30.

Excellent, though it would have looked better in it's natural, washing line habitat 😉

As a birders who once said "it's a lot of money just for finding Jack Snipe", I can tell you I was wrong. It's a game changer, and I seldom go out without it now. Had some excellent views of LEO this winter without disturbing any.
