This little guy is the reason I'm so frustrated with my 55-250mm. One of these days I'll get myself a decent lens for birds.

I'm also looking for longer glass, but not sure it will help a lot with these guys. I chase them regularly, and don't have much. I have been using a 300. Just wish I could afford a 600 f4.
