Most folks think a very long lens is needed for bird photography.  It
certainly is helpful for photos like I posted here:

or here

But I got some nice ones seen here 

http://www.jimblockphoto.com/2014/01/yard-birds-in-winter/

with a very short lens.

 

This is something most folks can do. I published a short "how to do it"
article here
