Thanks Rookie, just bear in mind though that I do use a tripod for most of my images and getting pretty close in to the birds does help a lot. The Sigma 50-500mm does have a touch more reach but I find the quality of the 400mm is such that you can crop more than with the Sigma 50-500mm.

Also don't discount the Canon 100-400mm with image stabilisation, especially if you intend hand holding
