Where to do nature shoot and what to prepare?

[TrailsofLife]

Hi everyone,

I tried shooting animals and birds in the zoo and bird park....But after a while its quite sian... So wondering where to go to shoot animals or birds in Singapore? Normally I use only my 70-200 f2.8 to shoot, what else do I need to prepare?

I have a Sigma 2X APO DG convertor, useful?

Do anyone organise outing for this kind of photography genre?

Thanks

You can try shooting egrets, they are very common this time of the year .... no problems at 200mm ...

Shot using 200mm ....
