January 2012

It is now the New Year and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our customers for their support over the difficult times of last year hopefully 2012 is going to get better.

This winter as so far been very mild and the feeders are very quiet with visits from Nuthatch and Great Spotted Woodpecker infrequent the same can be said about our Long Tailed Tits their numbers are well down after the last two very bad winters.

Numbers of up to 30+ feeding Goldfinchs have been well up sunflower hearts is the key for attracting them.
The dark male Sparrowhawk continues to visit the feeding station one day it was wrestling with a Wood Pigeon but it was out done by the much larger Pigeon which flew off minus a few feathers.

Down the road at Pugneys Country Park two Great Northern Divers have taken up residency they appeared after the high winds before Christmas along with the regular winter visiting Bitterns.

On the Optics front we have seen the introduction of the Delta 65 “S” 17-52 zoom spotting scope a fully waterproof Japanese made product which at £249 plus some tempting tripod deals is proving to be a best seller.

In the mid price range the Optricron GS,ES and HR range dominate especially with a SDLV2 Zoom eyepiece.

The new Delta SL3 binocular as become a best seller with its open bridge excellent optics and lightweight making it a hit with anyone who tries it.

At the top end of the market the Swarovski range have become the bestsellers the Swarovision binoculars and ATM scope offering top performance.

At the lower end of the market the Opticron Trailfinder 8/10x42 at just over £100 offer unbeatable value for money.
