I like the new Android app as the gallery has gone and there are notifications in Android (although currently you have to setup sending a email to yourself for each bird you want a notification about so you get both). They are going to improve this implementation shortly apparently.

I was at the Glenmore Cafe in March and they had not had a pine marten there for a while (I didnt see one in 8 nights in the bar/cafe) but I was told that they were hanging around the bins at the Glenmore Lodge just up the hill. I tried there once but there was building work going on so had no...

I am thinking of buying one of the above two to leave in the car and for general birding while out walking to dog. I would therefore welcome comments from anyone who has compared them and especially the Opticron as I cant find any reviews of them
