Advice Lumix FZ35, Orion Apex 90mm (1 Viewer)

Hello Everyone, got a few questions and maybe some info that you may need.

I love Astronomy, and Wildlife.
So I got this camera Panasonic Luimix DMC-FZ35. And I'm wanting to get close to this Red Tailed Hawk, but I can't. So I'm looking at getting this telescope.
Orion Apex 90mm instead of the one I wanted the 127mm.
The 90mm comes with a mini eq mount. I have been into astronomy on/off over the years, and have experince with several scopes, 130eq,8" reflector, 10"dob. But no experince with Maksutov-Cassegrains.

So I enquired a little on Astronomy.net

and found out they make a nice little adapter for my camera.
Here is the site. I hope this may help some of you that may be in need of adapters as well.

Does anyone here have a Orion Apex 90mm? If so how does it perform for Wildlife spotting, and photography?
