Subject: Re: [Tweeters] Birding at Woodland Park Zoo?
in the past, i've photographed many birds (and other animals) inside the
zoo... for most (all?), i used the canon 100-400L. it gave me range and,
with a shallow depth of field, you can photograph through bars/fencing/etc
without worrying about the impediments "getting in the way"... with a fast
lens, you can also take excellent handheld photos if you are there during
the raptor flight exhibition...

if you know what you want to shoot ahead of time, 2-3 hours is more than
enough, though i'd personally schedule the day and decide after a few hours
if i'm happy with what i've photographed to that point...

examples available on request.
