Hello everyone.
I have been lurking for a bit trying to educate myself but thought I would ask the question, because I am still no closer to choosing a scope, or whether a scope would let me see what I want to.
I spend a lot of time on Anglesey in the summer in my caravan, and I am always looking out with my binoculars but I can't really see much even though I am very close to the beach. I would like a scope so I can see all the birds that frequent the beach at various times, and there is a small island a mile off shore with a seal colony plus lots of birds. Is there a scope that would allow me to see much at that distance, or would I be wasting my money? Some astronomy would be nice too.
My budget would be around 1k, obviously the cheaper it is, the less of a beating I would get from the wife lol.
