I, on the other hand, do not like binoculars, and use a $40 REI monocular
to get close-ups of birds at the feeder or in the back yard.   It's
small, light, easy to use one-handed, and allows one to bring distant
objects up close for the occasional view.  I've not used it on the water,
but if it were to deep-six or suffer water infiltration, the loss would
not be that great.
