Kingfisher - early digiscope (Geryle alcyon)

Sepia prints remind us of a bygone era. Five years ago I held my first digital still camera, a 3-megapixel Canon up to a spotting scope and took this photograph. It would be two full years before I visited Birdforum.net, and saw the term "digiscope."

Nice picture, I'm always in favor of digiscoping apposed to DSLR as it is harder to do. This gets my vote.

Well done Forcreeks.
