@BestBinoReviews @opticronuk Only problem is that model has been discontinued for years. The latest version is the Traveller BGA ED 8x32 and 10x32 at 16 oz. There is also a newer Discovery WA ED 8x32 and 10x32 at 13.8 oz.

@cgalvinphoto Just met an Everton fan in Colorado Fri night. He was from Poulton-le-Fylde near Blackpool. Nice chap but guess he needs to pull for a different team, huh.

Finally!
#29 years old and I’ve done sooo much for myself. I’ve met such amazing people and I’ve been amazing places. I’ve made some mistakes but I’ve learned from them and I can honestly say... right now... I’m the happiest I’ve ever been!
Here’s to more positivity!

One of these birds is not like the others... Whooping Crane in Nebraska!

I didn't expect to look out the window at work and see a new County bird! It showed up with a flock of white-cheeked geese and stayed over 2 hours after they left.
