Question... the pics I've tried to take of them never turn out good enough. I can physically see their white heads and tails from here but my pics from my little casio exilm make it look way far away.

Any ideas? I need a new camera to be able to catch all this. What's the newest best thing out there that is still automatic somewhat. I'm kinda camera retarded.
