David, Costco sells an Alpen 20-60 x 80 spotting scope that is currently on sale for $299 if you have a Costco membership. If you are on a limited budget it is worth looking into. It reviews well compared to other mid-priced scopes, but it does not carry the "no questions asked" warranty that you would get from a scope from Vortex, which is the "go to" mid-priced scope. I had the opportunity earlier this year to use one, and I thought it worked well. If you want to spend less than $750, I suggest you check it out. Just my 2 cents. Good Birding!
