Let's Scope It Out!

Really, spending the holidays in Ojochal is present enough for any Christmas - but this year we bought a Sighting Scope - or Birding Scope - or Monocular.

It is a Nikon with a wide field of vision and a 20 - 60x optical zoom.

We can see the waterfall raging on the far mountain, try to figure out what that strange light is in the distance, or watch the birds and monkey in the tree across the valley.

These are from our terrace to a tree about 300 metres away - - sorry, still trying to figure out how to keep the focus of the camera through the scope.
