New binoculars. Bought them at the Wetlands Centre. Nikon Action EX 8x40. Wide field of view (8.2) plus good close focus. Bit on the heavy side but no heavier than old pair. Second hand for £119 with new neck strap included. In very good condition. Waterproof.
Tried them out around the Centre and impressed.
Saw a sedge warbler (distinctive eye-stripe).
