What a nice link Skybird, though I can't seem to stream any video, only single shots...

I'll leave some links on the same matter:

http://static.publico.clix.pt/grifosnaweb/ - Griffons & Black Storks

http://static.publico.clix.pt/morcegosnaweb/# - Bats

Since your from Germany maybe you can answer me this, are the spotting scopes from Lidl and Alsi any good? I'm tinking of getting the Bresser/Meade 90mm scopes, since the Bins are very good and quite the bargain...
Has anybody ever used any of these? I'm aiming to use them to Digiscope a small island about a mile from my house' veranda, thanks in advance!

Can't tell you , but sometimes they sell these special items under "hidden brand names" but in fact they are quality items from some major manufacturer. And sometimes - it is not that way! However, I would never buy craftsman tools at these markets, which are often cheap and made in China, with all the disadvanatges this opften brings: bad durability, bad rubber.

Whether the brand of these scopes you mentioned is a quality brand or just an Aldi label, I also don't know. and since I have not tested them, i cannot comment on the items themselves, too.

Thanks all the same Skybird, I do believe these are good quality optics, they're from a German based company, and they're only avaiable aroud X-mas time, I believe it's during the company's sweeps, they put their scopes on sale; they have somewhat of a cult following in the UK because they are of good craftmanship (full weather seal, high grade lenses) and not at all expensive, about 150-200E for a scope and metal tripod + accessories... total bargain for a begginer's scope

Oh, and here's another link on the same project of those above I've mentioned, this time about White Storks, if you're lucky you might catch a couple of Kestrel's who've made their nest on the lower left side of the storks nest http://static.publico.clix.pt/cegonhasnaweb/
