Not really into birding, because i dont have the patience like wildlife photographers have, and because the lenses for birding (afs 400mm, 500, 600mm) are simply way too expensive. Not to mention you need special tripod to hold them because of the weight! well, i just hope to hit lottery one day, so that I may get a long lens and get a go at wildlife birding.until then, these will be the only wildlife pics you see in my gallery. heee!
