I meant to post earlier while there was still some daylight but got
sidetracked.

Anyone notice that birds are all watching the weather? Sure sign of an
imminent change.

Michael, FWIW, I've noticed my resident garden Foxes burying more of my golf
balls (they think they're eggs I'm sure) than usual.

Ah the Corvideo bird, I recorded some of those several years ago, they were
waiting for a passing Skydish.

Unbelievable binoculars for sale in Liddle this week. £15 for an
absolutely fantastic pair of Tronic 8 x 24 x 50.

I have a pair of USSR Zeis (8 x 30's -which are ideal for birding) I
happened upon these just now while shopping and they didn't seem too
plackie so I thought I'd try them. (If kids can pay £15 for a CD that
takes about as much effort to produce as a plastic bottle....)

Anyway when I got them home I found they were the next generation of
goggles every bit as clear as my old pair.

Do yourselves a favour and run right round to your local Liddle
supermarket and snatch a few sets for yourselves and your friends.
