My historic stone house probably has fewer windows than most houses.

Our friends at Bird Watcher’s Digest have come up with a fabulous idea!  It’s a new series of events called Reader Rendezvous: three weekends, three seasons, three different locations in the U.S.–each a distinctly wonderful opportunity in 2014 to discover, learn, and walk alongside one of the birding industry’s most notable celebrities: Al Batt, Julie Zickefoose, or Alvaro Jaramillo.

Come for a day or two or three, or for the entire week.

You can imagine our surprise when a call came in to Eagle Optics early this week to say that one of Operation Migration’s ultralight aircraft and 4 immature Whooping Cranes had just landed at nearby Pope Farm Conservancy. 

I had the opportunity to travel to Swarovski’s U.S. headquarters in Warwick, Rhode Island earlier this summer.

A while ago, Eagle Optics helped outfit Laurie Solchenberger’s 4th and 5th grade Birding class with binoculars.

One day last week, the Eagle Optics staff had the pleasure of hosting the famous Traveling Trinovid, Leica’s singular binocular that has already had, in its short life, some of the best adventures in North American birding.

I was being drawn back. Maybe it was out of my control.

The ABA has lined up some of the best regional birding experts to lead this lucky group of campers.

Teams of birders all over the state are vying for the distinction of tallying more species in a 24-hour period than any other team.

Register now for one of the most exciting birding festivals anywhere, and bring the family! 

The MBS: It’s like going to bird-watching camp! 

Alaska is legendary for its rugged scenery, pristine waterways and abundant wildlife.

We’d love to see you on the road!

This upcoming FREE event in Columbus, Ohio on March 23 & 24, 2013 could easily be nicknamed “Optics Lover’s Paradise.”

Ben Lizdas, our illustrious sales manager here at Eagle Optics, could talk all day about optics.

You’ve heard of a birdathon, right? A friendly competition of birding teams that take to the field, counting as many bird species as possible, and raising money for a worthy cause. But what is a Brrrrdathon?

Today in southern Wisconsin, close to 20″ of snow fell.
