How i shoot birds? i started with 18-200mm lens and for bird shooting, it will not be easy. specially in the park. Wild birds they get spooke easily, if you go nearer. Getting nearer is better for shooting birds so we get more details of it's beauty. Then i bought 150-600mm lens. it's great. it give better bird photo without spooking them. One downside is its heavy lens :( But i like it, since it reduced the time i spent to shoot birds. like a hour or two will be enough.
Places with lots of trees. I go. I hear bird calls. I seem them and slowly move closer and shoot. Best time to shoot is early sunrise and before sunset too. Find a tree that has many fruits. birds will be there too.

Hi, thank you very much.
Am not so good in writing. Thats why I write few or most of the time none. Now, with your comment. Somehow I feel, some do understand what I wrote :)

Your English is always easy to read, and if someone doesn't understand it just gives them an opportunity to write a comment and ask a question. We have SO many different languages here that I doubt if anyone expects perfection. Don't ever hesitate to write words. It's an opportunity for everyone to get to know each other better! ❤️
