BIG (Very Big) Binoculars

By Charlie November 25, 2008 4 comments

I was looking around the net this morning when I came across a lavishly-illustrated article describing the Nikko/Kuhne 30/60×180mm binoculars - which with their specially designed mount weigh in at over 300 POUNDS! Might they catch on with birders? Not a chance, but I’d love to have a look through them just the once…

He wants to be a writer, and thinks no-one would believe his life could be so charmed if he didn't take photos of as many of the birds he sees as possible. Blogging with 10,000 Birds fits his aims, needs, and insecurities perfectly. Really - do birders get much more fortunate than this?
