Mark Smith on Bird Photography: Behavior First, Gear Second

Sony Alpha Universe content, so take the branding with a grain of salt. But Smith's actual point is worth five minutes of your time: knowing what a bird is about to do, before it does it, is what separates a sharp frame from a meaningful one. Anticipation over reaction. If you're shooting wildlife and still waiting for something to happen before you fire, this reframes the whole approach. Not gear advice. Behavioral literacy as a shooting discipline.
