Hi there. I have a Nikon d60 digital slr. I'm interested in hearing what people think about a good lens for wildlife photography: specifically birds: specifically birds of prey.

I've used (but don't own) a 50-200mm and I loved it. I got some great pictures. A friend is suggesting a fixed lens, and I really don't know that much about the differences between the two (fixed vs. not).

Speaking of expenses, I'm on a 500 dollar budget. I know this means I won't be getting the best possible lens on the market, but what do you you all think would work for my situation?

I'll check back soon in case you have any pertinent questions that can affect your recommendations.

Thanks so much for helping me out!
