    Anyone else like Birds AND baseball?

    Fatback as suet

    I bought a package of fatback by mistake (bought it for a recipe but my wife vetoed the idea). Coincidentally it is almost the exact shape of a suet cake. Is fatback suitable to use as suet?

    Alpen Shasta Ridge 10X42

    I bought Alpen Shasta Ridge 10X42 about three years ago. I really have not been happy with them. Why I selected them is hard to explain other than that I just didn't do sufficient research, but I find it very hard to go about checking out binoculars. It was the first binoculars I've had that...

Need to buy a new pair of binoculars in the next month, and I was looking a Minox 8X44 HD, which I liked, but an expert has pointed me to Zen Ray and mentioned ED3 8X43 and Prime HD 8X42.
