Here goes heresy...for birds, unless you're into blinds and all that,
most of the people that I see in the Anhinga trail, Sanibel, Corkscrew
etc doing this are using very long lenses. Long and fast, to be precise.
I'd advise you to stay with Nikon if you will be doing this sort
of thing. I love OM, but also use Nikon, and in this particular
application, I think there's a 600/4 in your future. OK, flame away...
