    Compared to the Meopta S2 Lee was it far superior in every respect?

    A Tripod Primer

    Good info thanks but what about having some information about what are the best buys, with so much choice around. I for one am looking for a good tripod for my Meopta S2 Scope.

    My budget is as much as it costs to get a decent, fit for purpose system.

    Recommend a decent tripod?

    Many thanks for that information, very useful. I will look into getting a decent one, the S2 is a lovely scope but its the tripod that lets everything down.

    Any meadow planters

    We have planted an hedge, Hawthorn, Hazel, blackthorn, wild rose etc. Want to have an area of meadow for next year, anybody done this?

    Recommend a decent tripod?

    One that actually works. This Vanguard I have just got which was thrown in free with the scope is a pile of trash, you locate a bird/mammal etc and lock it, then it just moves, its stable enough on the ground but the head(most important part) is garbage. Not fit for purpose, no wonder it was...

    No problem, each to is own, that's why I have never kept a list. I just like looking at and trying to identify birds.

    Yes I understand that's where the Scoter has been and is still around there but so will be numerous other birds that could be in the photograph. You can surely only put it on a list if its a definite, confirmed sighting, which is impossible from the photograph.
