    Birding after surgery...

    I do have the FL 8X32. I guess everyone has one or two of these....it's one of those binoculars everyone seems to really like....but me. Plus it has some sentimental value to me so I don't even try it that much. Long story... I've considered the SFL 8x30. Seems like a nice binocular. Zeiss...

    LOL! Thanks! Sorry....I had too much free time! I do have an 8X32 SF. You wanna buy it? 🤣 IMO ER is the critical question when considering the UVHD+ 8X32. If I were a betting I'd say it's going to be a little too close for you.

    I don't have a 30mm SFL. I'm sure it's an excellent binocular. I have and use the same MHG 8X30 and the 8X30 CL B. I use the MHG WAY more! That's correct! He's still at the same spot he was as of yesterday! He wasn't shy at all and very tolerant of people. It's funny when you pull up to a...

    So no NL has touched my hands since August. I've actually got the NL, UVHD+, and EL SV 8X32s in the Jeep for tomorrows birding trip. It's going to be a group trip behind the gates on TVA property. Should be out there quite a while so I'll try to compare those.

    Birding after surgery...

    Long story short I had open heart surgery to replace a valve and an aortic prothesis August 23rd. Now I don't know how many of you have had to have this done BUT it's, I'll say, something else. So I've had a lot of time off work, about 10 weeks more or less. My rehab was primarily walking and...
