A simple question, I hope.
We are doing a birding trip to Sabah in May, taking in Kinabalu Park, Poring, Sepilok, Sukau (Kinabatangan), Tabin and Danum Valley; we have never visited Borneo or even Malaysia before.
Is it necessary or even useful to take a 'scope on a trip such as this or would it be largely superfluous? I am in my 60's and no longer find carrying a 'scope and tripod on my back for long periods to be an easy matter.
Thanks in advance for any constructive advice.
