Sometimes, birders are more interesting subjects than the birds. I can well understand your comments on the M for bird photography. My one picture of a barred owl was done with an M6 and a 50 Summicron. The bird itself is slightly larger than a dust speck but recognizable under a loupe. I took the picture as a record to prove to the always-skeptical birding lady friend at the time that I did indeed see it. I envy you your hummingbirds. I've been trying for several years to lure them into my yard.
