    Renting a telephoto lens for a birding trip—what should I know?

    Birding at a subtropical tidal estuary, last Sunday

    Last Sunday, I had my first birding experience with a local guide. We visited a nearby tidal estuary, hoping to spot some bird species that inhabit coastal areas. All the photos here are credited to my birding guide, and I’ve already received her permission to post them here. As a birding...

    Hello

    Hello from Southeast Asia! I'm a beginner in birding, not really into photography—just genuinely interested in everything nature-related. (I only have a pair of binoculars so far.) Nature-related activities aren't very popular here. Most participants are kids, and they’re usually brought into...
