    10X50 CAMO BINOCULAR RUBY LEN

    April 23, 2008

    INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE A: Diopter setting of the eyepiece B: Roll-down rubber eyecups for people wearing glasses C: Focusing wheel Adjusting the field of view The distance between the eyes varies from one person to the next. To achieve perfect alignment of the eyes and the lens openings, hold the binoculars in the normal viewing position and move the two barrels either apart or closer to each other until you have a single, clear field of view. Focusing 1. Set the right eyepiece (A) to zero and sight on a distant subject. 2. Cover the right front lens with your hand and rotate the focusing wheel (C) until the image in the left eyepiece appears sharp. Keep both eyes open while you make this adjustment. 3. Now cover the left front lens with your hand and rotate the right eyepiece until the image is sharp. 4. The binoculars have now been adjusted to your eyes. Note the diopter reading of the right eyepiece for future reference. Rolling down the eyecups If you wear glasses, roll down the eyecups (B); this will reduce the distance between the eyepiece and the eyes, providing an improved field of view. Cleaning the binoculars 1. Use a soft lens brush or a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the binoculars. 2. If you use a cleaning agent, never apple the liquid to any of the glass surface, but sprinkle it on the cloth. Buy from here…

    Our Life With Birds: A Nature Trails Book (Wardlaw Book)

    April 20, 2008

    “It is a warm but cloudy morning as we emerge from the dense mesquite thicket to stand on the northern bank of the Rio Grande. A small flock of green jays, purple-and-black heads contrasting brilliantly with green-and-yellow body plumage, noisily announce our presence. Slowly we work our way downstream, checking off on a mental list the other subtropical birds we see in this birder’s paradise along the Mexican border. . . .”

    For nearly a quarter of a century, John and Gloria Tveten wrote a weekly column, called “Nature Trails,” for the Houston Chronicle. Wide ranging in both subject matter and geography, their writings reflected a rewarding life of travel, study, and observation in nature, including many memorable encounters with birds. Through the Tvetens’ accounts, readers traveled vicariously to canoe a Minnesota lake alongside common loons, experience the rare thrill of seeing a snowy owl on a boat dock in Louisiana, count a record number of birds on the Texas coast, or spot tropical tanagers in a Brazilian Rainforest.

    Now gathered together in Our Life with Birds, these writings let us sit back and enjoy the best of John and Gloria Tveten as they tell about the fun of listing, banding, and other games birders play; about the behavior, variety, and beauty of birds; about the imperiled as well as the favored species; and about the simple joy to be had in living With birds.
    Customer Review: A passionate chronicle of birdwatching
    Written by a dedicated pair of Texas naturalists, photographers, and freelance writers, Our Life With Birds is a passionate chronicle of birdwatching - the joy of observing feathered friends in the wild, awake or asleep, feeding, courting, or raising a family. Brief yet memorable chronicles from the 1970’s to near the turn of the century recount observations of everything from whooping cranes to snowy owls, though many chapters focus on recollections of general features and behaviors of birds in general, rather than encounters with specific species. Black-and-white hand-drawn, naturalisitic illustrations add a charming touch to this guide especially recommended for anyone who loves to view birds in their native habitat, or armchair travelers who wish to experience birdwatching across America without having to traverse the length of the nation.
