Yes , there better for finding ground stuff than in trees I found,  I sold mine as I had mine for finding phesants at night but to behonest they weren't that good for that due to phesants nor letting off much heat at night , my mate has 1 wich he paid 2500 for but its a hik owl I think ....that thing is next level amazing,  ypu get what you pay for 

Cheers mate. I thought the higher end one's would be better for what I mentioned. I keep going on the Scott Country website having a look at different one's and makes.

Seriously thinking about getting one . Can you pick ground nesting birds up on them in cover and such like.

A lot of RSPB bird ringers now use thermal at night to net ground roosting birds,I am probably going to the NEC next week to have a look at the latest models, technology moves quickly.
