Below is an email I received from Andrew Vitolo, a reader of this blog. What I like best about his email (in addition to the compliment) is that Andrew took time to share some information he had just found. I encourage other readers to share their observations, knowledge, new info, ask questions, and create a dialog that will help everyone interested in birding and our local birds.
In Andrew’s case he uncovered info on new binoculars developed by Sony that contain a high definition digital video camera. Imagine someday taking video of the mystery bird you are looking at so you can ID it later and show it to your friends. For details follow the link in his email and then page down several pages.
Andrew, thanks for sharing.

Hank,
Just wanted to say, I’m diging the new Blog.
Saw this on a Tech website and I’m sure its something new for Birders to drool over.
Sony Binocs that record video and take pictures… but good quality pics and video.
Im sure we will be seeing more of these as tech gets better and better.

Keep up the good work!
See ya at the shop,
