I never do birding. Don't really have the lenses for it.

edit: you're right john, I'm going to work on getting some with what I have.

But I'll join in the fun.

Scotty, David. A long tens is helpful for "birding" but not an absolute. Patience, moving slowly and techniques (like feeders, tripod, remote shutters) are important. The shots in my first post were shot with:
1. 70-300IS at 140mm
2. 18-55 (kit) at 51mm through a window
3. 70-300 non-IS at 300
4. 70-300IS at 170mm
Dorie, Robbie, Scotty - Great shots and fun. Thanks for sharing.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
