I always carry the Canon 18-55mm kit lens and 55-250mm kit lens allowing me to have a wide range of possibilitiesFeedback
Definitely want to be ready at all times while in the field coupled with patience to fund the right moment. It also helps to be prepared for the weather and scout ahead if at all possible.
