I would like to find new birds to shoot. I think i must go near mountains or bird's migrating area. A longer focal lens is best to make sure time is not wasted and will make sure to get lots good bird shots, going home :)
Birds are probably the most beautiful creatures on Earth...

Thanks, I agree. But sometimes not easy to photograph.
You're right... It's not like we can tell them to freeze...

I absolutely LOVE your Olive Backed Sunbird Bro! How did you manage to match the background colours to that of the bird @digitalis? Very clever indeed. I wish you a successful trip to the migrating area with your longer lens and I will look forward to viewing them on your return. (U & R)
