Birdwatching is a very popular hobby among nature and animal lovers; a binocular is their most basic tool because most human eyes cannot resolve sufficient detail to fully appreciate and/or study small birds. [74] To be able to view birds in flight well rapid moving objects acquiring capability and depth of field are important.
Principle of binocular vision with horopter shown. In biology, binocular vision is a type of vision in which an animal has two eyes capable of facing the same direction to perceive a single three-dimensional image of its surroundings. Binocular vision does not typically refer to vision where an animal has eyes on opposite sides of its head and ...
Depth sensation is the corresponding term for non-human animals, since although it is known that they can sense the distance of an object, it is not known whether they perceive it in the same way that humans do. [1] Depth perception arises from a variety of depth cues. These are typically classified into binocular cues and monocular cues ...

Three people birdwatching with binoculars. Birdwatching, or birding, is the observing of birds, either as a recreational activity or as a form of citizen science.A birdwatcher may observe by using their naked eye, by using a visual enhancement device such as binoculars or a telescope, by listening for bird sounds, [1] [2] watching public webcams, or by viewing smart bird feeder cameras.
Image-stabilized binoculars are binoculars that have a mechanism for decreasing the apparent motion of the view due to binocular movement. [1] Such binoculars are designed to minimize image shaking in hand-held applications. Higher-power binoculars magnify the image more, but the image shift is also increased. This means that even minor hand ...
The forward-facing eyes of a bird of prey give binocular vision, which is assisted by a double fovea. [4] The raptor's adaptations for optimum visual resolution (an American kestrel can see a 2–mm insect from the top of an 18–m tree) has a disadvantage in that its vision is poor in low light level, and it must roost at night. [1]
A stereoscope is a binocular device through which a pair of monocular images was projected to both eyes in such a way that the optic axes converge at the same angle, which gives the impression of a 3D image. Since then, people have begun to understand the concept of stereo view.
