Was thinking about buying a pair of binos for my brother in law for Christmas. Was just wondering what folks thoughts were re: size and brands etc. Looked at some at CT on the weekend. Some were 8X50 and 10X50 up to 80 bucks - Bushnell. Not really familiar with what I should be looking for. He like the outdoors etc and is a pilot as well. Thanks for the tips. Nemo

Neat photo and Story An unusual clash between a 6-foot (1.8m) alligator and a 13-foot (3.9m) python has left two of the deadliest predators dead in Florida's swamps. The Burmese python tried to swallow its fearsome rival whole but then exploded. The remains of the two giant reptiles were found by astonished rangers in the Everglades National Park. The rangers say the find suggests that non-native Burmese pythons might even challenge alligators' leading position in the food chain in the swamps. Clearly, if they can kill an alligator they can kill other species Prof Frank Mazzotti The python's remains with the victim's tail protruding from its burst midsection were found last week. The head of the python was missing. "Encounters like that are almost never seen in the wild... And here we are," Frank Mazzotti, a University of Florida wildlife professor, was quoted as saying by the Associated Press news agency. "They were probably evenly matched in size. If the python got a good grip on the alligator before the alligator got a good grip on him, he could win," Professor Mazzotti said. He said the alligator may have clawed at the python's stomach, leading it to burst. "Clearly, if they can kill an alligator they can kill other species," Prof Mazzotti said. He said that there had been four known encounters between the two species in the past. In the other cases, the alligator won or the battle was an apparent draw. Burmese pythons - many of whom have been dumped by their owners - have thrived in the wet and hot climate of Florida's swamps over the past 20 years.

Nice fish you're doing well this year.
