This Morning Outside

Mingling among the still-winter-drab goldfinches is a bird with stripes and a spot of red on its forehead. Talk about making my day! This is only the second time I've seen a redpoll at Birdwatching Dot Com. Around here, we call it an unCommon Redpoll.

36-inch Spiral Feeder

Lots of birds can feed at once from this looong looong Yellow Spiral 36" feeder. Click the picture to see a short movie of goldfinches visiting the feeder.

P.S. The common redpoll visited it too!

Best-Value Binoc

We love the new Vortex Viper HD 8x42 binocular.

Vortex Viper HDIt's a high-quality binocular, one that bears comparison to the highest-priced binoculars in the world.

It has outstanding optics and it's superbly hand friendly. Yet its price is in reach for serious but budget-minded birders.
