You would definitely want to save up for a longer reach (>400mm) telephoto to use with the RP. I am using my 70-300L with a T3i so I get to have an effective reach of 480mm with the crop factor. But as you soon find out when birding the quest for additional focal length seems to never end. Need examples of pics using the lens then check out my gallery here on DPR.

Thanks Mike, I had a look at the Tamron 100-400mm this evening and I could see myself wanting more reach. I'm leaning towards the Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary now.
I bought one last month to use with my R5 and I am happy with the results. If you are in the States check out B&H they include the Sigma dock and filter for the same price others charge for just the lens. I am not a big filter fan, but the dock saves you almost $60. If you do lime filters the included filter has good reviews and is $120 at B&H and Amazon.
