Camera recommendations for the avid birder
Ive had my Canon Powershot SX720 HS for about two years now. I originally bought this camera for its portable and lightweight features. There were some downsides though.
1: It did not/ does not come with zoom lenses. For a birder this can be tricky, especially when trying to take far away shots.
2: It does not have clear focus.
I would like my next choice to be lightweight, portable, have clear focus, to come with zoom lenses, and overall be in a price range of about $300- $500.
If you have any recommendations, please post a comment below.

Staring contest with Sandhill Crane
What do you think this Crane was thinking when we started our stare down? I don’t know who one though, I think it was a tie.
Sandhill Crane Family
These “Dino’s were wading in marsh, I was ecstatic with how close I could get to them.
There was a Mom,Dad, and a young sandhill crane, they were eating some kind of berry. We don’t have alligators, sharks, or any of those dangerous animals, but we have ” Dino’s.
