My daughter wanted to photograph some birds for her wildlife club at school and had been trying with a compact camera but not had a huge amount of luck. To make things a bit easier for her I set up the 450D with the 200mm lens outside one of the windows and ran the remote release back inside where she could sit without the birds being startled by her. I think the results aren’t too bad.
