The local Green Wood Pigeons are very sensitive to human movement & will
explode out of a tree at even as far as 30m. Amazingly, they are not
fazed by cows or dogs.

I’ve found that my birds are most disturbed by sudden movements and are more
tolerant of noise. I try to be positioned with my hands on the camera when
waiting for a bird shot. When the bird alights on a branch I slowly swing the
ball head mounted camera into position.

I went to a dance event in Portland last weekend and stayed at my
friend Phil's house. He has a bird feeder and I was able to get a
clear view of it from his living room with the sliding glass door
open. The noise of my bigma focusing would often scare the birds
away, and a quieter focusing lens would definitely alleviate that
problem.
that's a real problem with the the 55-300 too.
In other news, I'm getting pretty good at photographing the spot
where a bird recently had been.
