love the eyes in #1, both shots are excellent. sorry to change the subject but how long have you been digiscoping? how do you find it to your liking and is it really hard to do?

I've started digiscoping only last year and I does it everyday now while not on birding tours hehehe :biggrin:

The system is very good for stationary birds and other wildlife like Raptors, resting Waders and Seabirds, Trogons, Kingfishers and Thrushes because they tend to perched longer even when they noticed my present.

But I would suggest to get DSLR to compliment BIF and fast moving birds such as Warblers, Bulbuls and etc.
