    Eastern Meadowlark

    I thought it’d be fitting to burn a meadowlark on this old cedar fence post. I wonder how many of the birds perched on this very post over the decades.

    Potential ivory-billed woodpecker footage

    Potential ivory-billed woodpecker footage

    I hate to beat a dead horse but has anyone else seen this submission from bobby harrison regarding an almost 10 second clip on a flying IBWO on Oct 17, 2020? Not holding my breath, but always hopeful...

    Older Zeiss 8x30B monocular - opinions wanted

    Hi, I’ve found an old 8x30B monocular for sale that looks to be in good shape. Since it’s not local Incant try it out, so I’m wondering if anyone here has used it and has any thoughts, opinions and/or insight they would be willing to share. Thanks for any help you can give. Here are some pics...

    Does anyone use a Kowa 66mm scope and an Olympus TG* combination? What adapter do you use? What eyepiece works best? Do you have any examples of what this combo can do? Thanks! Russ
