I think this is the best one,
you did really well especially considering your lenses, birders need the best glass.
I stumbled across a birding site this week, it seems that a 300mm prime plus a 1.4x teleconverter is the most popular, a 80-400 zoom is controversial and a 600mm prime is king but very expensive.
Looks like you did a good job of getting pretty close though, well done

Yep 200mm is about as far as i can afford at the moment and thats a kit lens, just chuffed i caught any of them. My camera does have a 1.4 and 2x teleconvertor button in live view, but its just a form of digital cropping the already big 14mp image. Handy for a shot you really want at lower res though (drop to 7.1mp and 3.4mp at 2x). However these were all taken through the conventional viewfinder on multiburst mode.
