Kowa Sporting Optics

Jeff from Kowa US trying to walk through Global Birdfair without meeting someone who uses Kowa gear… impossible. 😄 A few steps, another familiar face, another tour guide, lodge or travel company using Kowa optics somewhere around the world.
This little walk through the marquee turned into a pretty good reminder of just how far the Kowa community reaches – with plenty of familiar faces from Central and South America along the way.
Global Birdfair may have been a while ago, but we couldn't leave this one sitting in the archives!

Magpies: misunderstood or deserving of their reputation? 👀
For David Lindo THE URBAN BIRDER, the answer is pretty clear. He's firmly on Team Magpie - these intelligent, familiar birds deserve more credit than they often get! With his new Kowa SV III binoculars close at hand, there's always a reason to stop and take a closer look at the birds around us.

A construction site probably isn't the first place you'd think of for birdwatching. But that's exactly the point!🐦 David Lindo, THE URBAN BIRDER, shows us that nature is all around us, even in busy, built-up places. From House Sparrows to Goldfinches, there's always something to see or hear when you start paying attention. Take your binoculars with you and never assume there's nothing to see!

Even beside a busy building site, there’s always time for a little urban birding! 🐦🏗️
