    Barnacle Geese

    Have seen 3 small groups of Barnacle Geese in the river meadows on the Ivel River Bedfordshire, 2 groups of 6 and another of 2 birds in different meadows, my guide books say these are only winter visiters to Britain, is this true or as I suspect they are not that uncommon.

    I was leaning towards the Nikon porro, but the focus distance could be a issue for me, so will probably go for the Opticron, unless there is a similar porro to the Nikon out there within my budget
