First, that new pair of bins for testing arrived, of which you will be reading in a due time, and two days later, the Global Big Day. While my Big Day was already over by mid-afternoon, it did help my mood and provided a lot of opportunities to test the new binoculars. And then things got a bit faster. Where to go? The same eagle?
