Fwd: Re: binoculars



Hi, Mark and others-

You can read about our picks for binoculars (and scopes) at

http://birds.cornell.edu/publications/livingbird/spring99/binos.html

(Added bonus to those who know him: amusing image of reviewer Ken Rosenberg 
included in the review. )

We get so many requests for this review that we bumped a link up to our 
home page during recent web revisions. I hope it proves helpful to you.

Good birding,
