    Baby bird ruptured air sac

    Birds have a totally different respiratory layout and system than other animals. A punctured air sac is a punctured breathing system. A chick with a punctured sac has a very slim chance of survival. Check the YouTube link Per

    Birding on Lofoten in July

    Can't leave this one unanswered! Where to find birds? Just about everywhere, with seabirds being prevalent. Find a spot, perhaps not one of the most popular tourist ones, and watch. Myself, I spend hours watching the small offshore islets, but the short distance from sea through "forest" to...

    Two binos? The Swaro AX and the Curio. Scope added? ATC. Per

    SWAROVSKI AX VISIO: MY LEARNINGS IN A NUTSHELL

    That was a very precise review! Thanks for the heads-up.

    Wishes: a new scope like the AX Visio

    I'm hoping you are wrong: I tried digiscoping, found it disturbing (as in interrupting my birding), and when the phone finally got into place I'd get a call 😥 So I got an AX... Per

    Swarovski ATC: which lightweight tripod?

    I kept the half-shell on when attaching the Arca plate (or Sirui/Arca compatible), I see quite a few have omitted it for tripod use. Could the half-shell be the reason I don't have a "rotational" problem? Just a thought. Oh, and I usually put it outside the window when seriously watching! They...

    Little bittern. The photo is of its reflection in the water (so rotated 180), the bird itself was mostly hidden by the reeds.It caught a fish just after the photo was taken!

    Curio 7x21 vs. CL 8x25 pocket

    I'm keeping my curio for much the same reasons: it is truly pocketable, excellent optics and really useful. It does not replace a good scope or larger bins, but it certainly complements them, and certainly gets more use! Per

    I'd complain. Looks used.

    Curio 7x21 vs. CL 8x25 pocket

    A CL 8*25 "accidentally" ended up with me, I already had the curio. I've tried them both together, and will stick with the curio: wonderful optics and perfect pocket fit. The 8*25 gets left behind too often, it does not add enough to viewing compared to the 7*21. My opinion.

    Any good ideas for orange shoes😂? Make?

    New ATC/ STC 17-40x56 Telescope

    The adapter is seen nested in the line to the sling. The burnt orange colour led to a delay, rumour has it that Swaro mixed the first batch incorrectly and had to redo the colour mix. I needed it to match my Curios 😂🤣
