Further to Rick’s email,
For those CoBirders who don’t yet know about how easy it is to “phone-scope” .. There are actually great adaptors out there, many specifically for iPhones : basically a replacement case with a screw on ring that will slip over your scope eyepiece – which are very easy to use. EG: Google “ iPhone digiscoping adaptor “ and look for one specific to your scope eyepiece – bearing in mind that there is some crossover – eg I tried a Kowa one that fitted my Swarovski perfectly Phone digiscoping is a great way to document unusual birds.. and help with any subsequent id discussion Best rgds Dick Filby Carbondale From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of vorticity (Rick Taylor) Sent: 07 April 2014 16:00 To: [email protected] Subject: [cobirds] Emergency Digiscoping ;-) Franklin's Gull, Marston Reservoir Importance: High I thought there might be some interest in this. I was surprised to see a Franklin's Gull at Marston Reservior on Friday the 4th. I didn't have my camera, so attempted to take a shot through my scope using my iPhone. I was actually amazed with the result. https://sites.google.com/site/vorticitybirds/home/2014-04-04%20Franklin%20Gull%20Marston%20Reservoir.JPG Rick Taylor, Colorado Springs, El Paso County -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
