I'm rather obsessed with these little guys, but they're rather hard to
get. Small, quick, they let me get ~almost~ close enough to shoot
with 200mm, then take off. In several months, this is about the best
I've gotten:

I need longer glass, because this just isn't sharp enough (heavily
cropped). I never thought I'd hear myself say it, but I need more
mm's. 300, 600, whatever. First I need more money. To get that I
need a better job.
I'm getting sucked into the vortex, the black hole.
AAAAaaaarrrggghhh!
Doesn't matter how long your lens is, it's not long enough.
If you've got a 200, you need a 300; if you've got a 400, you need a 600
... the birds KNOW and they move just far enough away to frustrate you.
