What Are the Best Bird Watching Binoculars?

You may not have to go to all that trouble if you choose a brand that was designed by bird watchers for bird watchers. This is the case with the Stokes brand of binoculars. Stokes of course refers to David and Lillian Stokes. This married couple has lent their expertise to various instructional and educational guides and makes their own birding binoculars.

One model is Vortex Stokes DLS. The Stokes' family has teamed up with the Vortex Company to create these remarkable binoculars. This model is available in two different configurations -- 8x42 and 10x42. Both of these models are the same size. They are 5.5 inches tall and nearly 5 inches wide. This makes them large enough to handle easily but small enough to carry into the field with you. They are lightweight, which means they are very portable. The olive green rubber overlay makes them easy to grasp and comfortable to hold. These binoculars are sleek and eye-catching. Of course, the visual appeal of these binoculars is the icing on the cake. The performance and handy features are what really matters.

Stokes binoculars all have features that allow you to get the best view of the birds that you can. Your vision will be crisp and clear, with excellent magnification. You will see little to no edge distortion and enjoy the wide focus knob that allows you to adjust quickly and easily. These binoculars come with protective lens caps that prevent accidental scratching of the lenses when traveling. You will be the envy of your birding club when you show up with a pair of Stokes binoculars.

Of course, Stokes isn't the only name on the market. You will find binoculars from names like Canon and Pentax, to name only a couple. When seeking the best bird watching binoculars, you need to think about which features are most important to you and how much you have to spend. What is best for one bird watcher may not be best for another. If you can handle and try out various binoculars before buying, you should. You want to make sure you are comfortable using and handling your optics before taking them on an excursion.
