Several of you have mentioned the Bigma.  What  are your thoughts on pros and 
cons for this lens.  I think part of my problems have to do with lack of reach 
with the 100-400. particularly on the smallest subjects.  I have to crop way 
too much.  

I am aware that most problems related to quality photos are related to poor 
technique but equipment does matter especially in NATURE photography.

Does the Bigma allow autofocus when using tele-converters?

I plan to go! First day of Spring Break so I asked for time off at home. Look 
for a tall guy with a gray goatee and a BIGMA.

I believe there is a birding event on Sat. near Turcotte Labs and Highway 43.  
Weather permitting, I wondered if any of the MissBird Photographers were 
planning on attending.
