Hi everyone,
I have a question concerning bird festivals/warblers. I have been photographing mostly songbirds so far and would like to shoot some new species. I have a 400mm lens and a 1.4 teleconverter and can't buy a longer lens because they are way too heavy (and expensive) for me. There is a birding festival at Magee Marsh/Ottawa NWR which will also offer some photography workshops. I am torn whether to attend or not because I've learned that the crowds are huge. Would it be better to go during the week or to wait until the festival is over or not to bother? Are there any shorebirds worth looking for? Is anyone else going there?
