Ya I figured it to just be a type-O myself but if you want as inexpensive walk around that is really good try the 55_250mm,...That little devil is killer for $200 bucks or less new.

What flavour would you like MedicineMan ??

Flavor? Any flavor other than Chickadees, Robins, Titmouse, Cardinals :) But if not that's OK, we've got Panama in November-surely something there other than Chickadees, Robins, etc...
