Hello - new to birding - very new (1 Viewer)

[michaelbaker]

I joined a Facebook group called Beauty of Birds and now I'm hooked. I want to start learning about birding and the first thing that came up was "get good binoculars". So I looked on eBay and there are tons. I recognize the Zeiss brand from camera lenses, but there are so many. I'm willing to spend up to $200 for a good used set. So I'd love recommendations! THANKS.

Hi Michael,
A very warm welcome from a dull and chilly u.k.
Try checking out the review link when you open bird forum but if you are new to birding handle the bins before you buy and one pair will feel right and when that happen buy them.
