I have been a 'casual' birder for the last few years - I always go with my 3 children and we really enjoy it. I really want to get out again after a few months too busy to go birding very much and I want to get some new binoculars.
I have a pair of Nikon sporter 10 x 36 binoculars which I bought several years ago. They are still okay really but getting a bit tatty so I think I'm going to pass them on to one of my children (now old enough to care for and appreciate better quality bins than the cheap ones they had).
Can anyone recommend a pair that will be noticeably better than my current Nikons but not more than approx £150?
I have seen Bushnell excursions - will these be an improvement? Otherwise I am grateful for any suggestions.
