What is a Canon L-series lens and why is it a big deal?
Canon EOS Beginners' FAQ III - LensesCanon sell a number of lenses in a special series they refer to as L for “luxury.” These are their most expensive and highest-quality lenses, and are readily identifiable by the red stripe painted around the end of the barrel.

Related QuestionsI have a consumer Canon camera. Can I put a professional L-series lens on it?
Canon EOS Beginners' FAQ III - LensesThe major issue you really have to be concerned about is weight, since a really heavy lens can strain the lens mount. The answer is to support the heavy lens by the lens itself - just let the camera hang off the back of the lens. The weight of the camera is not going to strain the lens mount. This applies to all low to midrange EOS cameras, since even those cameras with metal lens mounts have steel mounts attached to plastic body frames.

Churchill Photo Tour FAQYou'll want a telephoto lens for bird photography if you want frame-filling shots. My personal favorite is the Canon 500 mm f/4 IS lens, and I carry 1.4X and 2X extenders.
