I was recently gifted a spotting scope by my amazing in-laws and man, I love it.
I’m using a Phone Skope case to attach my phone to the viewfinder and it works really well.

From the same trip: a Hoary Redpoll! This is a target species for birders up here, who are happy to pick just one out in a flock of darker Common Redpolls, and to have it distinct enough to confirm it's truly Hoary and not just a light Common.

We found a flock of 6 foraging together among the alders, and became (very) minor birding celebrities that month.

This is one of the six, another early test of #digiscoping, and one that showcases how difficult crisp focus is to achieve!

Early experiment with #digiscoping bird photos: an American Coot at the Bass Ponds of the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife refuge. This is using the Swarovski ATX scope, most likely with the Swarovski digiscoping adapter, and a Sony a 6300. Taken in April 2016.

Not the most crisp images, but I do love the patterns the feathers make as the bird stretches. Focusing is HARD to get precise when digiscoping!

I do believe that there is a Golden Eagle.

Had no idea the lunar occultation of Mars was tonight until @MarianneDenton mentioned it. Luckily had 40 minutes to run home, grab my gear, then find an empty lot.

Lidt #digiscoping fra min altan med en billig kikkert i går aftes.
