| | | Hello from Liverpool.
Hello all,
I have been 'playing' in a friends garden which is 80 x 60 feet.
It is completely grown over with brambles, nothing else. It is also north facing.
I am going to attempt to grow vegetables in it, but also, make it wildlife friendly.
So, I am thinking of getting a pair of binoculars, maybe off ebay.
What sort of magnification will do for watching the birds ? Thanks,
Celt. |

Celt
Go for either 8 or 10 x 40 don't be tempted by the high magnification zoom type. See recent threads which suggest a couple of types which are well priced.
