Well, it’s the beginning of May and those of you who enjoy bird watching have probably started to notice that a number of birds that migrated South for the winter are beginning to return. The birds that over wintered are becoming more and more active too. Building nests, perhaps even starting to lay eggs and raise young ones.

I love watching the birds that visit my garden. We get a number of common birds, but occasionally we’ll get a visit by birds that are not all that common to our general area. Once we even had an escaped parakeet enjoying our feeders daily.

If you enjoy watching birds as much as I do you should think about getting a pair of bird watching binoculars. You can use them to get a better view of the birds visiting your yard, and you can bring them along on road trips using them to find interesting birds in the trees or by the edge of lakes and streams. If you’re really enthusiastic you might even consider joining a bird watching group. I would assume that these groups are quite busy at this time of year with new members and lots of bird watching outings.

Eagle Optics has a wide selection of bird watching binoculars. The prices are low, and their customer service is superb. If you are a bird watching enthusiast you might opt to purchase a top of the line pair of binoculars, if you do, you can easily get financing on orders over $200 if you need a little help getting the binoculars that you really want.

One other thing that I like about Eagle Optics is that they have a Google Checkout payment option, and Free UPS ground shipping to the 48 contiguous states!

If I were going to purchase a pair of bird watching binoculars I’d probably get mid-sized binoculars. They are light weight and as with their size, they are in a medium price range as well. Eagle Optics has their own brand, and they also carry Nikon, and Pentax in the mid-size range. I’d have to take a good look at the features of each one to decide which brand and model I’d most enjoy using, but I can tell you that those are great brand names.

Check out Eagle Optics for yourself and get a brand new pair of binoculars so that you too can enjoy watching all the birds visiting your garden or area this spring.
