We had the misfortune of a house break in early in the week when one of the 
items stolen was a pair of Bushnell Binoculars. Insurance will cover the item 
but the exact model is no longer available. They were not an expensive pair but 
light,good for the longer bush walks and pretty good for birding.Bushnell do 
have a model Nature View (8x42) which could pursue with the insurers. 
Alternatively they offer replacement value which would be about $200. I recall 
there have been numerous conversations on the chatline about the relative 
merits of the brands on the market. Without wanting to be a nuisance can anyone 
remember a good model for around this money?
Any help would be appreciated.
PS Also has any one done the trip around Iceland and the Faroe Islands? We have 
ten days there in June this year and wondered if anyone had some birding 
experiences to share.
