I tested the 12s at my usual stomping grounds where I am used to local species and landscape, at their usual distances from the observer, so I could immediately spot a different experience. But, before I share my (very subjective) impressions with you, let me introduce the NL 12×42.

If they are "only" animals, if they are beasts which abstract not, then my comparison is a piece of sentimental foolishness. I do not claim to have the answer, but I think it is certainly worthwhile to raise the question: Why, exactly, all over the civilized world, in virtually every major city, are apes in prison?

This time horizon may feel interminable to Gen Zers who have been raised on a steady diet of instant gratification. Every employee comes to their team with unique motivators and experience. Younger employees who are just starting their careers don’t have many benchmarks for comparison purposes.

Look at the Swallow page shown in the beginning of this review: there is a comparison of Barn Swallow and Cliff Swallow nests; silhouettes of a Barn Swallow in flight; a skeleton of a Barn Swallow, bones stronger and stiffer than humans but not, surprisingly, heavier.

10,000 Quails’ reply: Ah yes indeed Swampy, this is another issue where I am able to call on personal experience to help you.

In my experience, Cinnamon Teal x Common or Green-winged Teal hybrids are the rarest; I have seen pictures of only 2 such birds and a 3rd bird (the one mentioned above) in life. Even so, hybrids not identifiable after comparison with the images presented here might involve one (or two) of these other teals.
