We need a better camera!

Well we have been seeing many interesting birds this past few weeks but the cameras we have just are not up to getting good pictures. I did a net check and the recommendations are way out of our price range so we will need to be innovative!
Hare are a couple of reference sites I found.

Here is are a couple of pictures from yesterday.
A baby blackbird
 An American Bittern
Sadly I am finding eggs and baby birds around the yard so the Magpies have been busy.

Nesting in the yard are:
Blackbirds
Goldfinchs
Robins
Several kinds of Sparrows
Tree Swallows in nest boxes
House Wrens
Flickers
Eastern Kingbird
Phoebe
And likely others which I am unaware of.
