Spring Bird Migration

Most people tend to think of spring bird migration as an April and May event, but those of us who love waterfowl are out in late February, weather permitting, in the hopes of catching some early action. Things don't usually get going until later in March, but it just feels good to be out birding with a spotting scope again.

This spring, I'll be out with my trusty Kowa 663 or Gus, the Nikon 82ED Fieldscope. Have to hand it to Gus for the performance, but I use the Kowa more often because it comes within 90% of the Nikon at half the weight. Either one is all the scope any birder could ever want, so just call me greedy. I drive an old run-down Geo for a car, but carry the best in optics. Hey, I know what is important in life.
