Twitchers Love Waterproof Binoculars

Birds live outdoors and congregate around water, even if it's just a bird bath in your friend's backyard. The weather is not always cooperative for ideal bird-watching. Also, have you ever noticed that many birds are more active when it rains lightly than when the sun is shining? This is because the rain brings the worms up to the surface. For all of these reasons, you need to get a pair of waterproof binoculars for twitchers.
Aren't They All Alike?
Sadly, not all binoculars are waterproof binoculars. Now, granted, you won't be able to drop the waterproof binoculars in the middle of the ocean, dredge them up again and then expect them to work. That's asking too much. But, you should be able to get your waterproof binoculars rained on or splashed by an ocean wave and not be damaged.
The best waterproof binoculars for twitchers are usually sold as boating or marine binoculars. They aren't just sealed and protected against water - they are sealed up to prevent corrosive salt water from getting in. They often have fog-proof lenses as well. Many will come with coated lenses so that there won't be any annoying glare. If your twitcher friend is prone to headaches, any glare may give him eye strain, which will in turn trigger a painful headache.
Granted, these waterproof binoculars will be a little more expensive than just a set of opera glasses (the cheapest binoculars you can find). However, if you've ever bought a pair of opera glasses, you know that they are very flimsy. If you're in any way excited, they will break under your grip. And they fog up under many conditions.
But waterproof binoculars will not break the bank and will last for many years. There are now many excellent waterproof, fog-proof and glare-proof binoculars made that cost less than $100 (US), including tax. You can find them at sporting goods stores, boating supply stores, sometimes camera shops and any of their online equivalents.
