I had swaro 8.5x42 for about 20 years and liked them. A couple of years ago I traded them in for swaro 8x32 nl. Optically fine but they have several annoying features in use (unacceptable at this price point) and I would look at other manufacturers in future.

A few more pictures of this very obliging bird which remained in view for about 2 hours.

I have seen the wall lizards at Durlston a few times, always in the same place (though they may well be elsewhere) - on the south side, towards the lower end and a few metres up and only when the sun was on the wall.
