Little Birds

I have been trying to capture images of the Superb Fairy Wren (Malurus cyaneus) for a little while now. Getting close was the problem - the lens is never long enough and these little birds move so quick.

Well I solved some of the problem, I purchased myself a 300mm prime lens and a 1.4 teleconverter giving me a combined focal distance of 672 mm - long enough most of the time. Now the problem is holding the lens still enough and getting a fast enough shutter speed to get the image sharp.
