Whether you have actively pursued the hobby or not, many of us have become casual birders during the pandemic.
Back when human interaction nosedived, we made room for daily strolls to any green space within a five-mile radius, and it just so happened to come during prime-time spring bird migrations. Even The New York Times reported on the new American pastime. And if you’re worried about coming out publicly as a bird watcher, don’t worry, you’re in good company, with Jonathan Franzen, Paul McCartney and Wes Craven included among celebrity avian admirers.
Now, it’s time to take your hobby to the next level. Today on Amazon, Celestron Nature DX binoculars are 32 percent off. The well-reviewed, user-friendly introductory model has been recommended by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s online guide All About Birds, and at 8×42 spec (that is, 8x magnification and 42mm objective lens diameter) it’s powerful enough to differentiate your chickadees from your nuthatches.
