Binoculars Clinic

NWRL Branches

Bring your binoculars for a checkup, try out new models and find out what's best for backyard birdwatching, watching butterflies, sports, hunting, kids and travel.

Learn what the numbers (7x35) mean. See what's best for eyeglass wearers and how to find the right "fit" for your face and hands.

Agassiz Audubon's Heidi Hughes knows binoculars. She'll bring several models for you to try out - and if you already own a pair, she'll show you how to make them work better for you. Eagle Optics is helping us out by loaning Agassiz Audubon binoculars to use to demonstrate binocular "bells and whistles."
