Really enjoy your posts about birding and Parkers. As an avid birder for over fifty years your work with raptors really hits home. I have been going to Whitefish Point here in the UP for many years and like you have always lean towards Raptors and Waterfowl. As I'm sure you know WFP has fantastic Raptor viewing in the spring. There are a number of Federal banders who have worked this area for years, as well as the Owl banders. Back to Parkers, I have a small collection of Parkers and other American made doubles, but nothing like some of our members. If you ever find your way to the UP for birding let me know as I am always at WFP in the spring for about a week.
