    Hi from Hamilton Canada

    I've recently joined the "Hamilton Naturalist Club" and have discovered an interest in birds. I have been a active photographer and will be looking for any hints on how to include birding with my hobby (any hints on photographing birds in flight would be appreciated). I'm in the process of...
