    Are the Swarovski NL 8x32s the best birding binoculars?

    Hi Beth, No, it wasn't in the house. It was on the underside of the cover of our sprinkler system. They couldn't be in our house ... the wolf spiders would eat them!

    Are the Swarovski NL 8x32s the best birding binoculars?

    Are the Swarovski NL 8x32s the best birding binoculars?

    Denny, By the tone of your verbiage, I think you are confusing W D C with me ... W J C.
