Birding at LeFurge woods
A2 has so many excellent nature areas. LeFurge is one of my favorites! Some of the trails are flooded from the rains but the trail up the hill is still nice.

Canon R7, EF 100mm f/2.8L macro, f/2.8 1/200s ISO 500. Mathaei conservatory, Ann Arbor, Michigan.
I have been taking my R7 and RF 100-500 on 3-5 mile hikes with just a strap and a clutch. I mostly go for birds but I find myself missing macro and landscape photo ops. I would like to bring along either my EF 100 macro or Sigma 17-40 (or both). I currently have no bag big enough to carry the 100-500. If I bring a second lens with me I have no way to set down the 100-500 when I switch. I would love to hear your solution to this, anything from sling, to holster, to pouch, etc. Thanks!

The conservatory at Matthaei is a great way to spend a couple of hours. You can catch some amazing blooms now. Free, and open until 8pm on Weds.
