    New Leica HD Ultravid PLUS

    I couldn't agree more! I tried them all. Now I've got a pair of 8x32 BA's off eBay for £300. I even got a leather Leica case with them. The perfect Binocular for me. There's just something about them! Now I can relax :t:

    Hello All, Thought I'd share the highlights of my first two days... First bird I saw on leaving our place was a surprise Sandwich Tern fishing in Pollenca bay! We then headed up into the Tramuntana mountains. First stop was Lluc Monastry. The hoped for Wrynecks never materialised...
