    Cuba, February 2017 - Waterthrush

    Your guess is at least as good as mine ;)

    Cuba, February 2017 - Waterthrush

    Agreed the pics aren't good enough for certain ID, my guess is Louisiana.

    Discolouration and rusty hinges on Zeiss SF

    For what it's worth, I have been using a pair of Zeiss SF's for several months in Florida, on the coasts and inland; lots of rain and high humidity. Having been told about this Thread, I examined them carefully and can report no issues whatsoever. Oh and the view through them is outstanding...

    Glossy or White-faced Ibis midwest USA

    If I saw it down here, I would assume Glossy (default Florida)but leave it un ID'd ,as I don't think this bird is (yet) showing developement of a reddish eye and the facial markings are also inconclusive. If the photos weren't as good I'd have a guess!

    Plover ID - Northern California, USA

    Having had another look, I think CJW is correct, it's actually a Grey Plover |=(|

    No. Parula? S.E. Pennsylvania, USA, 9-25

    I'd be interested to see the Magnolia shot. This is a NOPA.

    Anyone heard from Kay Optical recently?

    What a shame, back in the day I bought a lot of stuff there, visiting the site in person; still using the scope and tripod I bought there 12 years ago. My guess would be that they've fallen foul of the usual trend these days for trying out all the gear in the retail store and then buying online...

    iPods and birding software for technophobe

    Good advice and a sound post. Playbacks in Florida are becoming an increasing problem, unfortunately.

    S.California, La Jolla

    These were sent to me for ID, but I'm struggling. Non-birder, who said "sparrow-sized, feeding on the ground" Poor pics, but any ideas would be appreciated.

    Bins magnification

    Of the two best "field birders" I know and have birded with, one uses 10x and the other 7x bins. I know loads of top class birders who invariably use 8x. You really need to see which mag suits you best, but at 13, your eyes/coordination should be good enough to handle any mag. In any event...

    10 x 42 FL owners comment thread

    I bought the 10x42 FL's through Birdforum 6 years ago. I've used them extensively in different Countries and climates and they have always performed. Despite all the use, there are no signs of wear, so I would say build-quality is excellent. I've yet to look through a binocular that gives me a...
